The girls have a blast “helping” Jake clean out the pool.  I am not sure how they can stand the ice cold water but they enjoy splashing around as the pool is cleaned and refilled.  It has been fun having a small pool for the girls to play in at home. Here are some of the pictures from our last pool cleaning process:

Karlie thought it was so cool to jump over the hose during the cleaning process while Brina got a kick out of spraying Daddy when he wasn’t looking her way.

Aw…..what a great life it is having the opportunity to relax in the pool as it fills.  They were laying there like this chatting back and forth about summer, trips, and life in general.  I enjoy seeing them relax and have fun together.

Karlie spotted this eight legged spider in the pool as we were cleaning it out and filling it up.  A black widow spider is not the type of friend I like to swim around with in the pool.  Thankful he was discovered right away when we are cleaning out!

I am truly thankful for the time I was able to spend at home with my girls.  It is a blessing to have many memories of our summer together.  The summer has been packed full of travel, crafts, parks, picnics, and many other great adventures.  I am treasuring the last few days we have together before school starts again (only a few days left)!
