First day at the pool for this summer!!!

Today, was our first pool outing for the start of our 2012 summer!  It's not an easy task to gather up all our towels, wraps with turkey and cheese, snacks, cooler and lotions!  No complaining here though ... just saying it's a task!  It takes us a few times of doing this routine and then we become pros!  :)

I wasn't sure how it was going to go with Ashlyn.  She loves water and the pool we went to has a great kiddie pool.  It took her a little to get used to the chilly water but then seemed to really enjoy it!  It actually was pretty relaxing for me!  Matthew grabbed his VERY FAITHFUL pair of goggles (I am sure I will have lots of pictures again with this same pair of goggles!!! :)  ).  I hadn't told the kids before we got there that some of their best friends were also going to be at the pool today.  Him and Madison took off swimming!

Hadassah has a tradition of getting cheese fries!  She enjoyed them very much and even shared with Ashlyn!  Thanks girl!  They both savored every bite with licking their fingers clean!!!


 ShaLyn and Hadassah are getting settled for some yummy fries!

It was a nice day with a gentle breeze.  However, Matthew came home with some open bruises.  He now has four angry bird band aids on himself.  One on his elbow, knee, toe, and side.  He slipped at the pool and scrapped up a few bruises. 

Typing this reminds me of Hadassah's legs.  They look sooooo much better.  Only a few dotes to clear up yet!  Praise the Lord for His healing!!!

Enjoy the pools!  Beat the heat and get wet!!!
