Who needs showers?

For the past few days, we’ve spent our evenings de-weeding our pool area.  And, there’s a reason there’s no before shot.  I would have died of embarrassment.  I mean it was BAD.  We’ve been so busy with summer activities, there’s been no time.  Everytime we had time to do it, it rained.

Anyway, so after working so hard in the FL heat, we were hot.  Covered in mulch and assorted yard debris.  Basically icky.  So, there was only one thing to do.

Who needs showers?  For that matter, who needs swimsuits?

Chlorine works about as well as soap, right?

We all thought it was a good idea.

And, in case you were wondering.  I got in too, though not exactly voluntarily.  My sweet husband felt the need to grab me and jump in with me. 

I think some of the best memories of family are the ones that aren’t planned.  :)

    Looks great now !!! I LOVE the way you all jumped in, but love even more that Randy grabbed you and jumped in with you. I’m sure the kids loved that too.

    You are right in that some of the best family memories aren’t the planned ones.

These are great pictures of the kids and Randy in mid-air…how funny! And how ADORABLE the last one of Lainey is….love it!! In my mind, I’m jumping in that pool with you guys (clothes & all!!)
