What better way to kick off the first hot summer day of the year than through a backyard pool party!!!! On May 10, 2011 it was a sultry 95 degrees outside, and thats without the humidity! Older siblings are all in school and the pools/splash pads aren't open. I figured my backyard would do the trick. We set up with home-squeezed lemonade, rocket popsicles, minutemaid popsicles, water balloons, bubbles, and our two kiddie pools. Then we texted everyone in my phone (and even made a few quick last minute phone calls) and invited the world to come jump on our tramp and slash in our pools. Everyone brought along a towel and sack lunch and we had a blast! (Cordy slept the ENTIRE TIME in her crib. That girl is one amazing sleeper.)
I've learned that while playing hostess I am terrible about taking pictures. I realized at the end of the day that I only had pictures of a handful of our little friends and none of the fun Mamas that came to play that morning! Still I hope the kids remember that it was the perfect exciting morning, splashing and playing with friends, and a welcoming the happy summer weather. :-)

It looks like so much fun, and I agree it's hard to be photographer and hostess. I can never take pictures of Faith in God activities because I am just too busy!
Oh, the joy!
