Mud puddle

After a month of unseasonably dry and warm weather, the rain is refreshing. The kids couldn't wait to put on old clothes and rain boots to go jump in the puddles.

Harrison loved riding his bike through the puddles last year and making the brown water spray in all directions. There he goes again! Emma followed on the scooter.

Emma wanted to join in this fun, but I refused to hold on to the back of her bike while zooming through the puddle. We compromised. I gave her a good running start and let her go the rest of the way on her own. Sometimes she missed the puddle or fell before reaching the puddle, but Harrison managed to take a great shot of her right on target!

The real question is...what is Jenn doing in the background?!

I was wondering the same thing, Jerm. Maybe she's break-dancing. You know that robot-like thing breakdancers used to do? (Body-popping?) It looks like she's doing that. I can imagine a Herbie Hancock song playing, Jenn dancing, and the kids splashing through puddles.

Or maybe there's a robot Jenn that she activates when you leave the house. Perhaps this is the first evidence of it...
