Pool Party

I'm not sure what the temp was today but I'm sure it was at or near 80 degrees...in April! It was AwEsOmE! So of course we broke out the pool for the first time this year. It was so much fun that I invited several friends and their children over. We ended up playing and visiting for almost 4 hours!! Rachel was so excited to play in the pool with her friends that she wouldn't take a nap so naturally we had a few tantrums during the afternoon but overall she did really well. Benjamin must have known what was going on too because he only slept for 1 1/2 hours not his normal 3 hours. When I tried putting him in the pool he didn't like it so much, I think it was still a little cold for him. He did enjoy walking along the outside of the pool squealing at Rachel.
Here is my cute Benjamin with the adorable baby Kylee. Can you believe that Benjamin is only 3 months older than her!? They are like the same size!! I love this little girl, she is so adorable, I am going to miss her a lot when she moves to Australia.
Here are some of the kids playing in the pool with Chelsey (Kylee's mom). Funny thing: Benjamin was the only boy there today! There were 7 little girls and him, at least he has many girls to choose from :)
Another big hit (besides the pool) were the bubbles!! What is a pool party without bubbles?

I really wish I could have been there. I'm hoping after we move closer that there will be many more opportunities to get together with everyone. Can't wait.
