PB&J Pool Party!

Today, we went to Rob's parents for a PB&J Pool Party. Nana asked the kids last week what they would like on their peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. They came up with some crazy ideas and she bought quite a bit of their requests!! She had peanut butter, jelly, marshmallows, m&m's, raisins, chocolate, and some other things that I can't remember. She also had quite a bit of deli meat, for anyone who didn't want to be so 'creative' with their lunch choices! We had such beautiful weather. The last time she had everyone over for a pool party, it ended up storming. Today was absolutely perfect. All the kids got along so well and we hated to have to leave early. Emily had ice skating lessons, so we had to leave an hour early. Here are some pictures of the day.

Party at Nana's and Skateboard Camp!

Today, Ryan and Hunter started a week's worth of skateboarding camp! This is Ryan's second time this summer and Hunter's first time. While the boys were at camp, Emily, Caitlynn, and I went to Nana and Poppy's house, for a pool party. Nana invited all the ladies from her shop, and their children and/or grandchildren. It ended up raining quite a bit, but we still had a lot of fun. We let the children continue swimming, until we heard thunder. Poppy came home and cooked hamburgers and hotdogs on the grill. While it was thundering, all the kids went into the den to eat and watch a movie. Luckily, the rain and thunder stopped and after I picked Ryan and Hunter up from skate camp, they were able to swim again. It was such a fun day. Here are a few pictures from the day.

Look at all those children!!!
