Today we hosted a whopper of a pool party and I'm pretty sure that all 30 of us will be sleeping soundly tonight! Each year, we invite a group of my college girlfriends/families for a fun afternoon, and with all the multiplication we have done over the last 16 years, we added up to 30 people this year! The weather was picture perfect. Simply beautiful.
One angle looked like this often....
and another like this...
The kids pick up where they left off the last time and are instant friends.
And there were a LOT of friends to play with today! Sixteen little tykes ranging from 4 months to 7 years. Sure kept us parents busy this afternoon! Thankfully the only crisis was a cookie that got dropped into the pool and a little guy who thought it was worth falling into the pool for :) He was swiftly saved; but the cookie?...not so much.
There were some breaks in the water action and with a toy room stuffed full of dress up, all the girls were in their glory!
Regan and Lucy even ate dinner in their dress up clothes! We had such a big group that it was picnic time for the kiddos, either pool side or grassy patch. And not a one of them complained about not sitting around a table (except possibly those who didn't want to take a break from the water of course).
This group of gals seem to pick up where we left off last time too. I'm soooo thrilled to have them all in our lives!
