HOT HOT HIPPO!

Since it was almost 100 degrees outside, we decided it would be a good day to get the hippo pool out and let the kids enjoy the day the only way they could.  The adults enjoyed some beverages and we put a standing rib roast on the big green egg.  It was a great way to spend a brutally hot afternoon.  The only thing that was missing was Nana!  We hated that she could not be there to enjoy and had to endure the confines of a dark hospital room.  We did try to keep her involved by sending her pictures every few minutes.

Getting used to the pool again.

Jack was the first to just get right in.

Kate took no time to get to splashing.

Addi kept getting in and out, in and out.

Paw Paw and his grandson.

This is where they wanted to eat their snack.  They each had a whole cheese stick and some goldfish.  If you look close you can see Jack using sign language to tell us he wants more!

Note all the grass and dirt on Addi.

Jack and his new cup.

Once they got the cups in to pool, all they wanted to do was fill them up and dump them out.

Every now and then, they would take a big swig.  Am I wrong for not stopping them?

Addi went with the shake method.

Just love the look on his face.

It was a race to see who could get to her first.

Finally, they dumped it on their heads!
