swimming pool?



A couple of weekends ago, the remnants of Hurricane Hannah came through and dumped a bunch of much needed rain on us. After several hours of rain, Carolynn continued to beg to go outside to play. I got tired of telling her it was raining, so we went out to play in the rain! Our construction site was a cement hole at the time. It was filling up with water quite nicely. Since Carolynn loves to stomp in puddles, we went out and played in the temporary swimming pool.






Didn't take long for her brothers to venture out to play with us... They brought scooters and everything! It was a bit chilly in the rain, but we had a blast! Josh and Michael Taylor didn't join us -- they were off playing football with the "old men" from church. Seems everyone likes to play in the rain!

What a FUN afternoon!!! You're so good about just letting your kids have fun without care for getting dirty or messy. I need to be more like that!

P.S. Welcome to the blogging world!!!

Too bad I don't live closer so that when I got that call, I could have run over...oh well. I am glad the kids had so much fun. She is just a doll!

Okay, so I don't know what I am doing. I wrote you a bunch of cool stuff and then messed up on sending it somehow. Anyway, the jest of it all was that we love you and miss you. Hope to see you next summer. I can't believe how big Carolynn has gotten. How much is land per acre there? Tell Mike, only for retirement. lol
That was my summary. I hope I don't screw it up this time.
Love, Michelle Cowles
