The Woodbury Pools Are the Best

July 1st, 2008 by melissa

This morning our play group went to the Woodbury Pools. Our friend, Victoria got us all in. We had a blast. Nicole and Justin started out in the baby pool. Nicole found a floatie she just loved. Justin then moved over to the fountains. He got all wet! He is all smiles when the fountains get him wet. Grandpa stopped by to say hi and Nicole did her best to get him wet 🙂 Nicole ventured over to the big pool and Justin and I followed. In the water I went. Justin loved having the water come up to his neck while standing and he would say he was floating. Nicole got a little scared when the water was that high on her. They both liked playing on the stairs of the pool and I would have them jump in and catch them. All the kids were all smiles and everyone had a great time. At the end, I decided to give them showers. They loved it. They both got their own showers and did a great job washing their hair. They didn’t mind the water in their face at all, in fact I think they took a 20 minute shower. I just let them play since they were having a great time. Then the kiddos were starving though. There were so many snacks that they ate so I knew they may not eat too much lunch when we got home. I am so tired from the sun and the pool but of course Nicole and Justin don’t seem like they are going to nap. So no nap today. We watched some TV then I needed to go grocery shopping. So we went to the store so the kiddos can push carts. They are great little helpers. After we met Jen (Ryan and Matthew) at Blue Gum Park for some play. The kiddos were a little tired but had a great time. We played in the sand for a while. I buried the kiddos feet and we made sand cakes. The kiddos went on the swings and played in the club house. We came home and made dinner. We christened the new bbq and made yummy steaks tonight. The kiddos played outside while we cooked. After dinner, we played pile up on daddy for a bit in the king chair then we headed outside for a bit. Bret and I pulled out some plants in the backyard. Nicole and Justin got their gardening gloves and helped too. They love putting the garden waste in my bucket for me. Then Nicole and Justin played in the sand for a bit, hiding the little turtle under the sand. They did bubbles as well and painted with water. It was a nice night at home. We came in and went upstairs. The kiddos seemed pretty tired. So we got them into their pj’s, brushed teeth, and read a few books. Lights out and we told them Sally and Billy stories and off to bed. They went to sleep fairly easily tonight. That is the only nice part of no napping.
