We had play day at our house today and it was time to have some fun in our swimsuits! All the kids looked SO cute in their summer gear - and it is definitely starting to feel like summer here in Arizona! After a nice little rainstorm last week and much cooler weather than we are used to this time of year, it is finally starting to warm up and spend time by the pool!
Taylor has been SO excited all week for the "Water Party at her home!" She would ask me NON STOP - "Are the kids coming over today, Mom?" or "Go swimming yet with the kids, Mom?" Well, today was finally the day! I enjoyed it just as much as the kids did. The moms I get to hang out with are so awesome! It's always a nice break to be able to have adult conversations with women taking on the same things as I am on a daily basis. It was also Jessica's birthday so I just wanted to give her a little birthday shout out! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESS!
It was a perfect day to play outside. The kids splashed in the kiddie pool, played on the slip-n-slide (each of them attempting it in their own way - mostly just running across it), and played with the crazy water dog. We filled up on tons of delicious watermelon, pretzels, yummy Popsicles and drank Capri Suns. It was such a fun summer day and reminded me of being a kid myself! I'm so glad that everyone came over and made it such a great time! Thanks everybody for being so wonderful!
My little girl is so grown up!

Sweet Jill encouraging the kids to play with the splashing water dog - they all seemed kind of intimidated by it for some reason.
Avery & Taylor running and playing with the crazy dog. It's ears, tongue and tail would shake and spray water at the same time. I thought it was pretty cute!

We went to The Taylor's house later that night for cake & ice cream to celebrate Jessica's 29th birthday! It was a lot of fun and Taylor was able to play with a bunch of kids. Here they all are playing in the sandbox!
Tay came home in some of Talan's clothes since her dress was covered in sand from playing so hard. She was very impressed that she got to wear some of Talan's "Nike" basketball shorts. She really likes the Nike swoosh symbol and always tells us when we are wearing Nike. She is too cute and we had a fun day from start to finish!
