Labor Day Weekend Fun

What a great Labor Day weekend we had with neighbors and family. With this super hot, humid weather so glad that we have the pool.

Friday, Mary and Karle came over after Karle's dr appointment. Greta just loves Karle and follows her all over. And Karle loves being the big cousin. They swam, played... She was even successful in getting Greta down for a nap. 





 We then headed to the saline community fair that night to ride some rides and see the livestock. Lots of fun - despite her expression.



Saturday brought Aunt Julie - which Greta had been talking about all week. Julie come tomorrow? And I would say no, Saturday. And when Saturday finally came she was pretty excited!



Lots of playing and swimming for Greta. Then we had a pizza party that night by the pool with the neighbors. 

Sunday brought more guests... Dad, Aunt Gail, and eventually the Weldens. It was the perfect day to be in the pool (which was super warm)! I even got in the pool for a bit even though I wasn't supposed to. 


Greta also discovered that she can swim all by herself with her life jacket. She more runs in the water but either way does a great job and burns lots of energy doing it. 


We also had our first fall in. Scared the day lights out of me how fast it all happened. But she slipped on the steps and went face first in with no life jacket and bumped her head too. Luckily I was right there and grabbed the back of her shirt and pulled her out. Yikes! I did get her to go back in shortly after so I was happy it didn't scare her too bad.

So much swimming she crashed on the couch around 5:00 watching Frozen - something she's never done.


That night Bob and Rebecca arrived for the final wave of guests. And more fun was had including swimming with grandmother. 


Tuesday was back to reality. But lots of great memories made! Not sure we'll get many more nice warm weekends like that so really glad we made awesome use of the pool.
