Sunny day

Today we finally had some warm, sunny weather here in cool, rainy England.  Brad and the kids decided it would be a good day to get the blow-up pool out and have some backyard fun.  It ended up not being quite as warm as expected, but the kids had a blast running around in their suits.  It did warm up a bit more later in the day, after they'd had enough of the pool.

Only one more full week of school, then a half-week, and that's it!  Poor Susanna is so tired from being at school so much.  I hope that the break rejuvenates her a bit.  She has a field trip this week to a safari park, and she is very much looking forward to that.

Ben has been going to a program called Tumble Tots, which is a bit like Gymboree and places like that, except the equipment is portable and they move it around to different towns every week.  He is very happy to go there and has a lot of fun playing on the equipment.  He is done with cooking classes, but still has football (soccer).  Ben is the biggest kid in his football class and is starting to get a bit bored with it...  Hopefully we'll be able to get him a place in the older kids class (3.5 - 5 years) in September.

Filling up the pool.

Life jackets, just in case...
Those toys are so bright I need my shades!
All organized (for the moment...)

Hopefully the weather will be warm enough for grandpa to try out the pool. I just read the forecast for next week and it said the temperature will be in the 70's. Let's hope so.
