School is out / Summer celebration

The kids have been begging me since May to have a school's out party, but since my schedule was so crazy in June, we just were not able to do it. So I promised them they could have one the last day in June to celebrate summer. It's all they have talked about for days!

Harrisen was so excited for the party that when I sent him to the laundry room to grab his swimsuit he came up with this one (with a little help from his sisters I'm sure). Yes, that is My swimsuit and No, he does not have anything on under it. He really thought this would be okay.(sorry I can't figure out how to turn this picture) Everyone is having a popsicle break, 18 kids in all were here. Somehow a few missed being in this shot though.
Kirsti's being a goofball!
Everyone took turns jumping,

and swimming in the pool. Which is actually a horse trough, but has only ever been used as a pool . I love it because we will never have to replace it because it got a hole in it. These things are built to last!
Once the shade hit the pool the tramp was used more for warming than for jumping.
Some of the kiddos used it for a stage. They made up a silly play and performed it for the other kids.


We couldn't find our slip and slide so Madi and her friends were trying to figure out how to turn the slide into a slip and slide.
Bailee and her friends. Cheers!


Madison and her friends, they all wanted to sit on the same swing.
Harrisen and his little buddy sippin' thier soda.
No, you are not seeing double, two of the friends actually had the same swimsuit.


The slip and slide

Shout out to the Brewers, we all miss you guys!

How fun! Thank you for letting my kiddos come and play over there (even though they were stinkers!) You rock! Next time is my turn! :) And, seriously, I love your swimming pool. Beats having ot buy a new one every year because they get holes in them!
