HOT day COOL pool


Jennie and Robert were in Maryland/Washington DC area for 4 days while Jennie did one of her clients bridal make-up and up-do for her wedding.  Kim and I had the kids while they were gone and took full advantage of the pool.  Amy invited her sister-in-law Kelli and her baby over.  Jennie's kids were still in year round school but as soon as they got home they jumped in too.  Leslie's boys and Aspen to came over later in the afternoon.  Vance was napping during some of our swim time so some of the kids missed out on the photos.

My favorite spot ... under the umbrella in the shade on the low deck portion of the pool.  Perfect!  Kelsie and Aspen were a little outnumbered with all the boys but they still had fun.  Our kids love to play this game called "toothpick" where you drop a toothpick in the deep end of the pool and then the everyone stands around the edge of the pool.  The first person to see the toothpick dives into the pool and grabs it.  Winners hold the toothpick!  It gets a little crazy, but they all have fun.  We might be just a little competitive.

It sounds like you had a lot of fun. I sure miss our pool. It definitely is nice to have a way to cool down on hot sunny days.
