Spring Carnival

Today was therapy day.
Actually, it should've been comedy day.
Kean's physical therapist got her uncooperative little subject to
climb the stairs, where he promptly crawled into his bedroom,
had me put him in his crib and started signing he wanted to go to sleep.
Thay was at 9:45 this morning.
Then Maureen (Momma Gump), his Occupational Therapist came
and all he wanted to do was sing songs about bubbles and bubble gum
(well, watch us sing songs)...
 and play on the I-pad.
 Today was also one of those incredibly, spectacular Spring days.
And Boy Wonder just wanted to be outside.
Several rides on the four-wheeler are never enough.
Thankfully, sitting on the sitting four-wheeler keeps him happy.
 Kean wasn't the only one itching to be outside.
His sweet sisters, Greer and Reese designed a Spring Carnival
all for Kean (Byron and Holland had church activities tonight).
First, we had to sign in and give our ages.
Plus, Reese had us give what was wrong with us, you know, for example, Kean
has Cancer and Down syndrome.  I guess mine would be just plain old old age and exhaustion.
 Then we headed over to the fishing station.
Kean got bubbles and I got bubble bath.
Next it was onto the trampoline for a hoops obstacle course.
 But wait, there's more.
Kean and Reese had a pool noodle sword fight.
It was a draw.
 Then a little "freeze dance"...
 a kick ball contest...
 
 and finally, a rousing game of stick Limbo.

The girls did try to get our neighbors, the Bodily's and the Kwid's
to come participate--- luckily for them  unfortunately for them, they had
previous engagements.
It's at times like this, I know you are wishing you lived next to the Barker's
so you too, could run the carnival gauntlet.
