A Fun In The Sun Filled Weekend- Part 2

Sunday was Father's Day and the weather cooperated and was another beautiful day. While it was a little on the hot side, it was better than rain! We spent the day watching the kids swim in their new pool from Papa & Nana, Evan picked tomatoes, and an afternoon boat ride. When we showed up to Papa & Nana's on Saturday, there was a surprise for the kids. A new pool! So we got it all blown up and ready for Sunday. Here are the kids enjoying the water in their new swimsuits from Papa & Nana at Easter, to get cooled off on a very hot day! Em wasn't into getting in the pool so much, but she had a blast dumping buckets of water out of the pool. (For some reason recently she hasn't liked bath time either so I'm not sure why she's not liking the water. She used to love it!)
Thanks Papa & Nana for the pool! We love it! It's going to get lots of use on these hot summer days!

When Evan goes to Grandpa's in the summer he likes to check out all Grandpa's tomato plants. Well Saturday there were no tomatoes ready, but Sunday there was, and Evan was all excited to pick them. (FYI- Grandpa put some ripe tomatoes out so Ev would have something to pick on Sunday! Evan won't eat tomatoes for anything, but he likes to pick them for me so thanks Dad for entertaining Evan with the tomatoes. He gets a kick out of picking the tomatoes!) Here's Evan at work!
Picking them one by one
A whole bucket full!

We did enjoy a nice ride on the pontoon boat out on the lake! I think the kids had fun too after Em got over having to wear a life jacket! She was not a happy camper when that got put on. However, once the snacks and drinks were out she was quite content!

It was nice to get out on the boat for the first time this summer! Followed by a delicious dinner of chicken and ribs on the grill and banana cream & strawberry pies for dessert! Thanks for a yummy meal before we hit the road home! Here's a few final pictures of the Dad's opening their Father's Day presents!

We had a nice weekend of fun in the sun, but by Sunday night as I told you we were all very tired! Thanks for all the yummy food and treats for the kids & Jen thanks for letting us invade your house with two very energetic kids and dog! Yes, even Molly went and surprisingly she did very well. Even when she and Baggy (Papa & Nana's dog) were together! Look how cute they are!
One last thing... once again Papa remembered the kids while he was traveling and brought back a t-shirt for Evan and a hat for Emmaline and Nana picked up a couple shirts for the kids for 4th of July! The kids love their t-shirts! Thanks a bunch!
