Water Music

So today was our final day of piano classes for the school year.  And while we did have some scheduled playing going on inside, the kids were very much looking forward to the things they did outside, most notably squirting everything and everybody with water.

But before that, there was a bit of a treasure hunt involved, where two teams raced against each other to find clues, and then using their pirate skills, sink their opponent's ship.  Madison's team (above) happened to win - yes, the girls won.  There was a bit of sneakiness in the win, but a win is a win all the same, and I suppose when you're dealing with pirates, the rules are more like guidelines anyway.

So with time to spare, there was next an all-out pirate battle.  Madison was hilariously accurate with her little gun there.  Frequently - and I mean frequently - she'd fire that thing off back over her shoulder, without even looking, and nail some poor boy in the head.

Yes, they were fleeing in terror from her.  You can see this poor boy here has a bucket filled with water, and yet he is no match for our little Annie Oakley.

At the end of the day, the girls actually kind of won.  Although everyone really won - they were all cooled off and soaking wet.  Madison enjoyed it a lot, but so did Mommy and Daddy, and all the other parents who got to stand by and watch from a safe distance!
