She's gone... :(

Oh bummer.
Emmy left today.
We sure are gonna miss her.
We all had so much fun with her while she was here.
We are so Thankful she was so willing to come and hang out here for a week.
We think she ROCKS!
We LOVE you Emmy!
After cleaning the house, and after Porter took a nap...we decided to get out of the house and go swimming at the Y.
That is always a fun time.
Elsie LOVES the water...but is very unsure when there is so many people there.
And there were a lot of people there today.
So after playing a bit, she was happy to hang by the side and watch all the others.
Bubba couldn't get enough water.
He was excited to wear his "swimming pools", as he calls them.
He found these when we were looking for pants at my favorite second hand store.
I couldn't turn him down when he brought these "swimming pools" to me.
I mean they were only $2.
Not bad.
(They have lighting McQueen and Mater on them....he has worn them a lot, usually over his pants.  This is the first time he has worn them swimming.)
Madi and Cassi stayed in the bigger pools and slides most of the time.
The couldn't go off the diving boards because that part of the pool was taken over by Marines doing some testing.
They were happy to go down the slide over and over.
Sweet Elsie Rose...showing off her size 2 swim suit.
Man, this girl is skinny!
I had to include this picture.
Right after I took it, Cassi ran right into that purple pole.
She as throwing a bit of a fit cause she wanted a turn to take Porter up the slide, and she wasn't watching where she was going.
WHACK!  She gave herself a nice little goose egg on her forehead.
Porter is a water baby...it will be fun to play with him at our pool this summer!

Poor Cassi...but that's what throwing fits gets you!

What a great place to swim! I wish we had something like that in this town. I mean, we have the Aquatics Center, but since it's outdoors, it's not too good for Winter swimming!

How wonderful of Emily to stay with your kiddos! And spend a week at your place! So awesome!

I had to laugh at the picture of Cassi, sorry that she bonked her head, but it's awesome that you had a picture of the incident!

We need an Emme, and a swimming pool!
Poor Cassi, but that is pretty funny. She'll be laughing about it later.
