Summer Fun!

The kids were all so excited when the weather finally turned warm. They all wanted to play in the water, but since I am not able to get into the big pool with them we chose not to put it up this year. The girls were a little upset, but we went and got them a little 15 inch x 6 feet pool.  They asked every day it we could put the pool up, they were so happy when Mom finally agreed to put up the pool on June 29.

Matthew was excited to get into the pool and when down the slide once, but when he hit the water and it wasn't the temperature of his bath, he was done with swimming. He sat by me and watched the girls play until I convinced him he could swing and not get wet. 

The next day Haden invited the kids to come to Grandma Erikson's house to try out his new slip and slide.

The girls had a blast, expecially Kylynn who kept cutting in line. She was able to figure out how to do a summersalt and still slide the rest of the way down the slide, it was pretty cool.

They played from about 10 in the morning until around 3 pm, they were all a little sunburnt, since they forget the sunscrean until shortly before noon. After lunch Robin's girls came down to join the fun. Matthew once again wanted nothing to do with the cold water, but he had a blast taking pictures with Mom's camera.

We had the Lefler kids over on July 2 to play in the pool and slip-in-slide. They were all excited about playing in the water. The kids all tried to get Matt to join in the fun but he still wouldn't get near the cold water. Braxton on the other hand had a great time. Matthew did enjoy sitting on the lawn playing with Ashlyn, and taking a lot of pictures with the camera.
