Pool

The kids came right at the beginning of the nasty heat wave we had in July. I've been so grateful for the cooler temperatures over the last few days (and so have my plants!). The kids spent a lot of time at the pool and all three went home darker then when we got them. Even Alec, so affectionately known as the Great White Hope by Joe, became more of the Great Cream Hope, by time he left.

A Frisbee, courtesy of Rachael's Dave & Busters winnings, provided the entertainment.

We had to stock up on pool accessories. I had to stock up on oxygen after trying to blow them all up.

Rachael is throwing the frisbee-- Look! Over Brooke's head!

Relaxing. Cooling off. Burning to a little red, sun baked crisp.
