Pooling


Today was officially the nicest day of spring that we've had. It got up to (a sweltering) 75 degrees, and we got out the sunscreen, the pool, and the FUN!
The little ones enjoyed it for a while until the big kids came home from school, and then they took over. Invasion of the Pool Snatchers. All the neighboorhood kids come around and grab buckets, chasing and dumping water all over each other....'til there is no water left in the pool. It's a blast to watch kids having pure, simple fun that doesn't use batteries or electricity.
Christopher says, "We sure are getting our $8.00 worth out of this pool!!"
As for the title of this post, the word "pooling" came from our dear Audrey. Instead of "swimming" she calls it "pooling". Makes sense to me.

Hi Jill,

I just wanted you to know that I check this every day and look forward to the new postings. I think you do a wonderful job with the text, colors, and layouts! I hope to approach that level of expertise. It is a great way for me to keep up with your family's doings!

Jill,

First, I love the theme of the photos (juicy booty). You can send Claire down anytime to ride horses to her heart's content! She can ride Shooter, the horse I ride. We are going to ride them in a parade on June 17. I'll have to put pictures of a cowgirl on there for Claire to see. Love you, Julie
