I was happily enjoying the giant Curious George book, when I heard........
"Ooooh! Look! What do these holes in the ground do?"
They shoot water!
"We are just getting a little bit wet, Mom"
What's this? More water!
I'm not sure this pictures conveys just how soaked Katarina was
when we left Curious George-ville.
(clearly jeans are not the proper attire for visiting George)

We poured the water out of her boots,
and set her boots and socks out in the sun to dry.
It takes a loooonnnngggg time to dry boots and socks in the sun.
How did a sock get up there?
One sock flew off the fan. The other sock flew off the fan.
But Thomas was not discouraged in his sock-drying efforts. Even when people walked by, pointing and laughing, he kept climbing back up and tying the socks on the fan...

until he finally got them to stay, as Curious George looked on with approval.
I am happy to report that we weren't kicked out for our improvised sock dryer.
Do you have a funny sock story? I know I'm not the only one!

BWhahaha that is so something Gene would do.. without a doubt
ReplyDeleteI am jealous that you live someplace warm enough to be dressed like that, and wet...outside. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteLooks like a rad day!
Thinking it must be a WHOLE lot warmer in Florida than it is in Oklahoma! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so much fun - SO much fun! And so yellow! What a fun day. I'm so happy to see you all enjoying yourselves like this. I live vicariously through your blog sometimes. LOL! =D
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the "Curious George looked on with approval" part - I have a feeling Thomas and Eddie and Curious George might get themselves in a lot of trouble if we ever let them hang out together. ;)
Note to self and Wonder-Twin: Never let the husbands go unsupervised. LOL!!!
Oh my! Thank you for the warning! We are heading to Universal and IOA next month and I know once my kid spots the Curious George area, he will want to play! No rain, snow, ice or ANYTHING will stop him!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the sock dryer, that is awesome!
Man, Curious George never approves of my antics - I'm so jealous!
ReplyDeleteCute post!
ReplyDeleteGetting wet is just half the fun ... getting your socks dry can be just as fun.
Oh I am jealous of the lovely weather you're in!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like kiddie heaven. So cute.
PS: Your blog is just plain adorable.
Too funny! My husband would totally do that too.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a cool place!

ReplyDeleteYou crack me up. Looks like you had a fun time! I saw the pics on Facebook....:)
Love ya Tracie.
Check it out, I blogged on BOTH my blogs today...lol. I'm not a blog slacker anymore....
I see participation on the show "Survivor" in his future ;->
ReplyDeleteOur family visited Universal Studios, CA for the first time last September. What a fantastic place!
What great fun you guys are having. Sock story....We moved my dgt.'s bed yesterday and we found a pile PDF socks bend it. We never knew how they got there and when we asked her about it she said...aliens
ReplyDeleteHow funny to see the socks on the fan. It would have been so uncomfortable to walk around in wet jeans like that but I bet as a kid she didn't care.
ReplyDeleteVery cool. Love the pictures! Looks like everyone's having fun. Love the sock drying idea!
ReplyDeleteHilarious ingenuity. Curious George would be proud.
