Gnome inspired

One afternoon Landry and one of the gnomes thought it would be a good idea to play in the sprinkler. It was, like so many others, a hot afternoon.

Landry and the gnome that gave her the idea.

Landry has special powers the gnomes and fairies give her. With daddy's help, she can fly.

She flies up in the sky...

...she comes down.

All is well.

Gnomes don't talk to humans. Landry, however, knows how to read their facial expressions. She says this expression means "I want a kiss".

She said this one means (and I quote) "Sad, mad and aggravated."

Thinking about causing some mischief.

Seriously?

In a good mood and having fun! Thank goodness Landry knows how to read gnome facial expressions.

Landry figured she would wash her hair outside like the gnomes (and fairies).

Pretending her flag is a leaf so she can block the water.

The leaf didn't work that well. Gnomes stand under mushrooms to stay dry...an umbrella is just like a mushroom!

It worked!

Tuff thought "Hey, I have one of those" so he joined Landry.

Landry couldn't resist getting Brad wet. I play the don't get the camera wet card.

I love the way water pictures turn out.

They both got soaked.

The gnomes gave Landry an idea. She asked Daddy's permission...

here comes...

Brad getting drenched!

It's all fun and gnomes, I mean games. Then Landry ran.

She hid just in case Daddy wanted to squirt her too.

Oh, he found her!

They're both wet and it's fun. Our gnomes don't have a water hose. So, how do they water things?

Brad is showing Landry exactly how gnomes water things. Well...

monkey see, monkey do. Maybe gnomey see, gnomey do? (love cheesy humor)

and do

and do again. It's a good thing the gnomes don't move when we're outside. No telling what they would teach Landry.

The gnomes and fairies watched all of the action.

Time to go inside.
