WELCOME to my blog!!

It has been approximately 2 years since I regularly updated, but recently I began missing my blogging. I have gone against "the rules of blogging" by simply naming my blog "Bridget's Ramblings". It goes against the rules because you are supposed to choose one topic that you are passionate about and write about it. Well, it just so happens that I become passionate about anything that piques my interest at any given point in time. My husband once told me my hobby is finding new hobbies.....I can't deny it!! However, I will say that my kids--currently ages 11, 8, 6, and 4--will always be a major topic you can expect to read about. Beyond the kids, my current secondary interests include running and biking....gardening will most likely be the next topic to grab my attention. But, the one thing you can count on is that I will undoubtedly ramble on about whatever I find interesting.

Sprinkler Fun

Yesterday (Thursday) felt like a summer day here. The kids decided they'd like to play in the sprinkler. The lawn could use a little water, anyway, so I told them to go for it. Bailey seems to enjoy the sprinkler as much as the kids do.

Ryan and Bailey playing in the sprinkler


Here's Paige trying to fill up her watering can
There is actually a funny story behind this picture. I was sitting on the ground taking pictures of Ryan running through the sprinkler. Kaeli came walking up complaining about something. I pointed the camera up in her direction and, in a split second, she had this huge "camera face" and a split second later she was back to complaining. I went back to taking pictures of Ryan, pointed the camera back up at Kaeli, and again she had this huge smile on her face. It was so funny how quickly she could "turn it on" and back off again.

This is a genuine look of fear. She saw a wasp nearby and she is terrified of any kind of stinging insects. She got her first bee sting last summer and that made her even more afraid.

Here's AJ watching the sprinkler activities from a safe distance. He certainly looked intrigued, but wanted no part of it.

And, here's daddy getting home from work.
