First day in our Pool



Mitch and Maria had a great time in the pool. They even washed their hair. The next night we went to meet friends Anne, Lily & Cora at the town pool. We came home and Mitch looked at our little purple pool and said, "That pool's not so much fun." He has worn shorts, or "short pants", as he likes to refer to them in both pools. And Grandma convinced him to wear cut offs of his long pants on a really hot day. Maria is really into dresses, but we have to be careful because if we make a big deal about it then Mitchell wants to wear them too!
Today we head to the Klein's annual 4th of July party in Elk River. They plan to have a bouncer and pool set--I think the purple pool will be really boring after today!
We have been walking on the trails and visiting the dogs next door. Holly, the black lab, will play catch with Mitchell--he says, "Holly, the black dog, is my favorite." He sits at the slide platform and Holly brings the ball to him and he tells her to drop it and she drops it on the platform for him to throw again. Maria is still a bit scared, but she did swing while the game of catch was going on instead of clinging to me.
Chris is having a great time in Idaho. He has a blog which you may check out on my links at the top left of this page. He went to Seattle for a little while and loved it there. He told us to bring our suits when we go out there in case he can get some time off and we can go floating down the Idaho River. Sounds like a great time. I'm excited to see The Crucible and to get a personal tour around the theatre!
