Oh man was it HOT! 97 degrees with a heat index of 108 and no sign of a breeze any where. We thought about moving the party, we couldn't find anywhere indoor, we thought about another weekend, it just wouldn't work out. So there we were, sweating, wiping, panting and trying to pretend we weren't. The kids enjoyed the pool, a few adults too, but for the most part the adults camped out under 2 easy ups surrounded by fans. It was a great idea, and the fans did provide a bit of relief, but it was the kind of heat where the only real relief is AC. The party started at 1 and I thought it would be best to get everything out of the way early on so that no one would feel obligated to remain until cake or presents. By 2:30, there was just a few guest left and they were all in the pool. The girls really enjoyed themselves and we really appreciate everyone sticking it out.
Im so impressed at how well they are doing in the pool this year. Last year they would cling to the closest person and swear if the let go they were sure "to get drownded". This year they are swimming alone with no floaties on. Morgan can swim underwater for a pretty good distance. Gabrielle will go under but hasn't quite mastered the motion of swimming yet. Im sure that will change soon though.
Because of the running around, I didn't get to take many pictures but here is what I got. Enjoy!
