Fan Club

I love the heat, and the weather is perfect for me this weekend. It was a great weekend for the kids too. Tae Kwon Do had a fundraiser car wash.

The car wash was a big success, but so early in the season I did not have sun block on the brain and the Artist suffered for it. She held signs and washed cars for nearly four hours yesterday, so today she is bright pink.
The Engineer might still be contagious, so I did not have him help his classmates at the car wash. He did get to enjoy some outdoor time while Daddy was home with him. The practiced with his pitching machine in the morning.

When I came home from errands, I got to see him take a few pitches. And I also saw this:The neighbor kids had pulled up some chairs to watch the action!

After lunch, the Engineer went out again, this time to play croquet. And when the neighbors came back out they were enjoying snacks and watching the sporting action. It was just too cute for me to pass up taking photos.

These kids have been exposed to the Engineer during his whole illness, so we saw no harm in inviting them to play along. The three of them had a grand time.
