Stayin' Cool

This weekend our goal has simply been to keep cool (no easy task since the temperature has blazed past the 100 degree mark every day in recent memory!) Luckily, we've had plenty of chances to splash away the Texas heat...


On Friday Leslie come over to swim and have dinner with us. We had such fun (like we always do!) Nate couldn't wait to show her his bravery on the big water slide...

No trip to the pool is complete without ice cream.
The joy it brings is worth every drop of mess it makes...

This morning Jason set up Nathan's little pool (yep, we finally got one!) on the back porch. Since it's completely shaded we decided to forgo the bathing suit. A swimmy diaper is all you really need in your own backyard...

This afternoon we went to Brett and Amanda's house to celebrate their daughter Roxy's third birthday. They also had a pool filled up for the kids to play in (have you noticed that Nathan is thoroughly entertained by water hoses?)...

More pool time planned for tomorrow...Hooray!
