Fun Outside (FINALLY!!!)

The 'skeeters' are awful as usual this summer, so time outside is not as often as we all would desire. Dad was able to take M234 outside while Mom was running errands with M1. M1 joined us once she came back home with Mom.

M2 wanted to hang from the "dingle" or "dangle" bars (as she calls them). Here is her step-by-step process to achieve the goal.

First, kneel on the swing.


Second, stretch and reach for the dingle/dangle bars. (You gotta want it!)


Third, pull yourself up and achieve a full grip on both dingle/dangle bars.


Next, lift your feet and let your hands do the work.


Finally, stick the landing and give a shout out!


The optional bonus is to come to the peanut gallery for a beautiful close-up and sign autographs.


M2 ended up trying to teach M1 the new trick on the swing set.

Meanwhile, to stage left...
M3 loves his cozy coupe. In and out, in and out. Well for some reason today did not go well as you will see.


M3 enters his car like any other day.


Soon after, he backs into...er, I mean, the swing set crashes into his back bumper. M3 does not take the event in stride.


M3 gets out to check the damage.


He then decided to flee the scene and push-start his car.


Eventually, M3 worked his way over to Dad to show the frustration often associated with driving. It's ok, buddy.
