Summertime Fun in the backyard...



Here are some pics from the weekend, man it was HOT!!!


Dave enjoying the shade before setting up the pool for the second time...thanks Thomas!
The boys were so excited to get wet in their new swimming pool. Dave spent a good hour blowing it up and filling it with water. Only to have Thomas come along and throw a handful of soil from my lavender garden into the pool....grrrr! It was actually quite funny to see Dave's response, he turned the hose on Thomas and soaked him from head to toe, I guess he won't do that again! We emptied and cleaned the pool. It took sometime to get that thing filled! But finally the boys could jump in...hurray!!!


Harry was the first in the pool...like a fish in water!

The boys had a ball playing outside. There was a beautiful breeze, the back yard is on a ridge that looks out to the Olympics, its so wonderful! Thomas finally got in the pool and just loved splashing!!! We bought him a pool noodle which didn't last long as it became a great bat to hit his brother with...of cause!
We love our backyard it really was one of the big selling points with the house. I imagined us playing out the back in summer when we were going through the buying process and now here we are....I feel totally blessed!

I love these photos, the boys were dancing in their pool singing some little song they made up...too cute!
