Water Weekend

The theme of the weekend was water. In many different forms.

First was a bath. Anna enjoyed it as much as the others. She was splashing. Aliza and Josiah made sure she was quite wet.

Then it was a swimming pool and hopscotch sprinkler. Aliza thought that was super fun.

Later that evening we went to a pool party. All of this was at Grandma and Grandpa's house.
Of course, Anna loved the water. She was taking in all the action and was not that active herself.

Aliza and Josiah started out in the children's pool. It wasn't long until Aliza wanted to go in the big pool. Josiah wasn't so sure. But later....


I was so proud of him! He learned to trust the floatie and had a great time. They even drug Mommy in to the big pool.

So much fun.

Our water theme continued on our trip home. We drove through some horrible thunder storms. I drove through the worst of it. I was concentrating so hard that my neck and shoulders were sore and I had a pounding headache by the time we got home. At one point the lightening cracked so close to us and at the same moment the thunder roared. I jumped and got goosebumps. Aliza got Panera for supper out of the deal because we just needed a break. We make it home safe and sound just in time for us to unload the car--you guessed it--in the rain!
