Bean Boozled & Cousin Love

Our day started with swimming and Popsicles. Cade insisted on playing with the outdoor chess set, and it took him approximately 2 minutes to ask for a Popsicle when he spotted the ice cream cart: "Mommy, can I have a Popsicle to cool me off?" Lyla had to have one too:


We went over to a different pool today, an outdoor pool and got to play duck races with the rest of the kids. Our kids won the race, but I don't think they quite realized the significance of this:




Candy for the winners - gum for Lyla and a fist full of tootsie rolls for Cade:


Keeping up with these 2 is taking a little extra caffeine for Lance & I...we got a boost before tie-dye t-shirts:



We can't wait to see how their t-shirts turn out:



Cade likes playing games by the pool - he can be pretty lethal with the sticks, however, and they sometimes morph into weed eaters mid-game:



This afternoon, we played a few rounds of "Bean Boozled", a game the kids discovered in which there are 2 identical jellybeans - one may taste good and the other disgusting...barf versus tootie fruity; skunk spray vs. licorice. It's crazy and crazy fun...and really gross, potentially:


This evening we headed down to Myrtle  Beach's Boardwalk, one of my favorite places here. We did the Ferris wheel again - great fun and awesome views:





Lyla noted a couple of people making out in the car behind ours, "Wow, they really love each other..." 

We finished the afternoon with another candy store. Cade didn't hit his head this time, but he came close:


Lyla taught him to chew gum today, an accomplishment they're both really proud of. I'm just hoping there will be no tangled hair messes in our future. We're going to have to pry it from his mouth before bed.

It was another amazing Myrtle Beach day. Our day ended with a video from Tevan of Reace, begging to watch a video we sent earlier in the week of "Lyla & Ca". After making another video for Reace this evening, Cade said, "We'll have to bring Reace to Myrtle Beach next time, Mommy."

Love. I just love all this cousin love.
