The Wash

The problem with the beach is that, as a mother, you're constantly worrying about your children drowning or being eaten by a shark (or it's far away and you don't have that kind of money).
A new friend here in Enterprise, introduced me to a little secret we like to call "the wash".
It's like the beach without the water, a sandbox with no end (or cats), etc. You get the idea. Anyway, my children LOVE it! And it's so much more fun with friends. The Humphries and the Bowlers joined us earlier this week before school started:

Sand down your shirt to look like a fat man or pregnant lady was a huge hit.
Burying people ranked right up there.

And of course, just good ol' sandbox fun.
