Swim Party

My grandparents are fantastic! They really love to be grandparents and it shows! They have so much fun planning things to do with the kids and then executing them. This last week my grandma threw her second annual lunch-date/swim party. It was just as fantastic as last year - PLUS we grew! They had a granddaughter move to Arizona since last summer so she got to have fun with us too!

Bela, getting Livy back for squirting her in the face earlier.

Check out Gideon's dive! I know your impressed.
They set up a little pool in the backyard and a slip & slide and the kids had a blast sliding on the slide and then going right into the water.

Then of course we had to have "after swim" treats.

The party! They all played so well together and had so much fun!







It looks like we just had a bunch of ice cream but that wasn't it! Grandpa BBQed hotdogs for lunch and grandma made little sandwiches for the grown-ups plus we had chips and cupcakes, and great conversation.
We had an absolute blast and we are already looking forward to next year!

Thank you Jeni!! But no body has more fun than I do. I love having this little party. And I love that the kids have so much fun. I'm already thinking of ways to tweak the 'slip 'n slide' for next year! :o)
