#12 There Was A Fire Fight

OK so it wasn't a "fire" fight per say but it was a water fight. The weekend before my birthday Phillipa had the boys and I over to spend the afternoon and night at her house. After lunch Aaron changed into his swimming suit and climbed into a bucket of water that had been sitting out in the sun for a couple of days. This took Phillipa and I by surprise and soon Daniel and Hannah changed their cloths to. The bucket was only big enough to fit one person at a time and only Daniel really fit. We then convinced Alemu to change his cloths but we couldn't talk Israel into it. Alemu climbed into the bucket but he didn't fit at all and only got up to his waist wet. Hannah then brought out plastic cups for everyone to have a water fight with it. It took Alemu a second to get the hang of it but he was dominating everyone within minutes. He wouldn't let Hannah get any water out of the bucket without getting her soaked so she grabbed a smaller buvket and filled it with freezing cold tap water and totally drenched him! When all the water in the big bucket was finished Alemu and Aaron grabbed smaller buckets and attacked Hannah- she was the typical 12 yr. old girl and screamed super loud in a really high pitched voice. I enjoyed seeing him have so much fun.
