First Taste of Summer!

It was hot enough this weekend to finally roll out the pool.  The kids were so excited to play in it.

Presley was in charge of filling 'er up.

We improvised and made our own water slide. Hey, it was free from the neighbor.  We need practice because we are going to Wisconsin Dells in a few weeks to go to the waterpark!

The kids were also exited to wear their new swimming attire.  Gracie and Evie got Ariel and Bub got Thomas.

I also signed the kids up for swimming lessons this weekend, among other things.  But if I'm going to make a swimmer out of anyone, it's gonna be this little girl right here. She is the only one who doesn't freak out when her face gets wet and is a little bit fearless when it comes down to it.

We also brouught out the water table.  That is always a good way to kill some time outside.

Just being outside the other day made me really excited for the many days we can spend doing this over the summer.  Of course we don't have a real pool, (thanks Dad!) but we do know some people with pools and we often visited splash parks last summer.  We are set!

And of course no hot day is complete without eating a drippy popsicle.  They were pretty excited about their tongues. 

Our summer starts in just a few short days!  Yeah!
