July 2, 2014
Our household goods were packed and loaded on June 30th and July 1st. Andy and the kids left on July 1st to drive to our Tennessee Mitchel cousin's house. I stayed behind with Charisse to finish cleaning the house and then followed them a few hours later. We all made pretty good time and we were very excited to reach their house. Andy and the kids beat me by about 45 minutes.
Bright and early on the 2nd we headed to their community pool to swim and enjoy a little water play. We stayed for a couple hours and then headed back to their house for some rest and relaxation.
Andy and Nathan about to enter the pool area.
Hunter found this swim cap and wanted to try it out.
The following pictures are of all the fun we had at the pool!
Daniel and Holden
Nathan getting in the water with Dad.
This is the toddler section of the swimming pool. The water was about 18 inches in this area. The slide, fountains, water cannons and the dump bucket were a blast!
Daniel the shark caught his first victim on the day!

"Here we come!"
Clover
Nathan is kind of a wild boy! He doesn't have the healthy respect for water that I would like him to have, so we had to try a variety of life jackets to keep him safe.

A great water fight ensued!
There were many casualties!
Eliza manged to stay out of the thick of it.
Atlas and Hunter supervise the Bradley and Calais on the slide.

We eventually had a shooting contest.

Holden
Andy and the kids lined up to race across the pool. They even talked a random swimmer to join in.
Andy won. :0)
Nathan loves to jump from the side of the pool into the water. He talked his Dad into playing with him.
Clover watched once of twice and joined in. She almost over shot Atlas!
Holden also joined in. He is big enough he doesn't need a spotter though.
Guard and Bradley
Holden took off his flowing wings and tried jumping in and swimming, it was really more of a doggy paddle, to the side. He did pretty well. Atlas stayed near him encase he needed a little help.
Before heading home the boys went through the shower. Dad was being so cute with Nathan, so I grabbed my camera. Then he started to be silly!
Can you tell he was being silly?
Uncle Daniel came home from a business trip and we all enjoyed some great hamburgers and hot dogs!
We were a little silly here too...
It was a fun filled day!
