Do you remember summer days when you were a kid? The only thing on your agenda was to play and have fun…and do it outside! Now that we are grown up we have to think about work and bills and obligations and looking nice. What happened to the days when we wanted to get in the pool, get out and dry off, and then get back in? I have turned into my mother because now I say, ‘I just washed my hair, I don’t want to get it wet’. Or, ‘I just got out of the pool and now I’m dry. I don’t want to get back in’.
We should all try to be a little more like our kid selves and get back in the water…even if you have already dried off!!
These pictures are from a little b-b-q we had at the house this weekend. I love the kids and how much fun they had playing in the water.

- Roadblock! Seriously. He was in HEAVEN!! Guess we need to invest in a slip n slide…

- And then there’s Reed. He went completely crazy for the slip n slide. He LOVED the water spraying him in the face.
This looks like so much fun! You are so right about being such a “grown up,” thank you for the reminder! I will try and be better about not being such a stick in the mud this summer!
