Friends and fun times!

 And she's off...she prefers to not be in her floaty, but would rather crawl around the entire shallow area!

 And of course drinking the dirty, disgusting, pee-filled water is a MUST!  What do you do...guess she is just going to have one of the strongest immune systems right?

The last few weeks have been spent with many daily trips to the pool with many friends.  We either take lunch down to the pool and have a picnic, which is Reese's favorite, or just each lunch at home and then head down.  Cambry usually takes a pretty good nap for me during the afternoon at the pool!  I'm so lucky that she will just lay down and fall asleep in her stroller.  I do feel bad because it is usually in the high 90's and she is taking a nap in her stroller under the trees in the shade but still very hot!  Obviously she doesn't mind it too much!  Last week we also went with a bunch friends all right around Reese's age to a huge water park!  That was a lot of fun!  I left Cambry home and Reese and I just had a fun day out with her buddies!  Glad that I didn't take Cambry because I wouldn't have been able to do anything with Reese.  She wasn't afraid to go down any of the slides by herself and really liked it!  (Yes, she is going to love Cedar Point as much as I do!) They had tons of things for the kids to play/climb/crawl across in the water.  They also had a lazy river (one of my favorites, not sure why because it is not so exciting but just relaxing) and a huge wave pool that we took the tubes out on!  Us ladies were getting tossed around trying to hold on to the girls tubes that they were riding on!  The girls were just screaming and laughing with excitement!  We had a great time!  I don't have any pictures of the place yet, but Eric has off this week and we are going to take the girls there so I will try to get some pictures of the place!  Other than that, we have had a BBQ get together with different friends each weekend so that has been keeping us busy!  Don't get me wrong, wish like crazy we were back in Michigan spending this time with our families and friends but we are keeping busy here too! Here are a few pictures of the pool and whatnot.

 Yup, the good 'ole hose is still one of the favorite things to play with!

 That tongue is ALWAYS out!

 Along that tree line is where there are a lot of lounging chairs to sit in at the pool as well as some to Cambry's right and behind her!  We are usually down to the pool on time as most Asians prefer not to get their beautiful white skin tanned!  What, we love getting tan!  I guess good for us right!  Many people, besides us die hard ones that like the sun, don't come out to the pool until 3-4pm!  In know, CRAZY!  But that leaves us with many quiet hours by the pool with only a handful of people!  So lovely!  And then it gets INSANE when we are ready to leave!  I mean the pool gets packed!  So funny!  They will probably live a lot longer than us with more beautiful skin, but ah when it is sunny I want to be at the pool!

 "Aunt Fabi" playing with the girls in the pool. 

 L to R Emma, Reese, Ruthie, Fabi, Elina, Lily, and in the background is Zoe and Olivia!  Yes, there are many, many girls right around Reese's age!  It is such a blessing for sure!  Seems like every time we go to the pool she always has some friends to play with!

 Cambry thought she needed to wear goggles too! I wouldn't be surprised if she would put her head under to look around either!  This girl is a water rat for sure!
