Our First Pool Party!

Dave and I waited 2 years to say that!!! Since our pool is done we wasted no time in inviting the family over, and what better time than when Wendy and Micah were coming down from San Jose for a visit? There is no better time I tell you :)

It was a great reason to invite the family over for some fun in the sun and water. This is the first time we had 4 kids in the mix (Caiden, Micah, Kiya and now Dean!!!). It was so cute to see them all together. Caiden and Micah did a great job playing together, and seemed to have a lot of fun. Kiya and Dean had fun too, I'm not sure they really knew they did though :P

Caiden and Micah play water swords
Then relax with Wendy to have some Popsicles
Here they are...the two cousin enjoying their treats :)
Micah sporting the latest trend in hats...I believe this was made by the up and coming designer Huggies :P

We ate some good food, have a good time swimming, and even the dogs joined in the fun. Of course Flash kept to the reef until people thought it would be fun to watch him panics (DAVE) and swim him out to the grotto and stick him in. Poor dog doesn't mind the grotto, but doesn't know how to get out without getting in the water. He totally panics when he swims. Hunter on the other hand was playing basketball with the boys (Steven and Mathew).

And a way out of the pool (the reef is on the other side)

It was wonderful to have so much of the family over. Can't wait to do it again :)
