prepare to battle.



Current rainy days excepted, this summer has been long and hot.

We've done so many trips to the beach that there is a permanent layer of sand covering the floor of the car {by the way, talcum powder is an excellent, instant remover of sand from small children's limbs}.

There have been iceblocks. Lemonade. Afternoons in air-conditioning watching singing puppets until I can no longer stand it.

And then we battle.

Over three hundred water balloons were filled and, save a few, were put into plastic tubs to be placed strategically around our backyard. A few were saved, to fill the box you see above- and left at our front gate for Shan when he arrived home from work.

And then it was time to play.
