Build Together: Daddy Day

Whew! What a weekend. It was a busy, but fun one here! Yesterday our plans of taking the kids to the pool were a bit spoiled when a storm rolled in out of nowhere. By the time we got ourselves out of the pool... the wind was in full force...skies were black, and before we knew it, a large pool umbrella (blown in the wind) knocked poor Sophie P against the fence. You can imagine how scared the little kiddos were. Sophia was in tears....and it took a few seconds for her to realize that in all of the commotion her loose tooth had been knocked out. She was mortified when we couldn't find it. I felt so bad...not to mention that I had insisted that we walk to the pool earlier on....so after all of this ruckus... we had to run home in the nasty weather. You can bet I won't live that one down. The day ended with sunshine and blue skies...imagine that...good ole Kansas weather for you!

Today....we actually made it to the pool, swam (in sunshine) went down the waterslide more than you can count and had our picnic lunch!!! Sophia was a little uneasy about going to the pool today...still worried about those darn umbrellas. I think she will definitely have an umbrella phobia now...not sure that I blame her either. :)

We enjoyed having our families over for a quick throw together grill out tonight. Lots of good food....picture taking and of course cookies!!!! Here are some pics from our night! I of course struggled to get a good picture of the kids with daddies and pappous and papas! Those little guys just don't sit still long enough for me to figure out the correct settings on the camera!!! Practice, practice practice.

Just the DADDIES
