Last Day of Summer

We've had quite a Labor Day! Adam golfed with a few biker guys and I played tennis with one of the biker guys who doesn't golf. (Gerrit went to Dahlen's for a bit during this time). After lunch we regrouped and headed to Lake City. What better way to end summer than swimming at the Lodge. The heater is still on in the pool so its perfect for little limbs.

Gerrit was in the pool a very long time. I was in the pool with him while Adam biked to the gathering w/ a few of the guys. Gerrit spent a lot of time putting his face in the water and even blowing bubbles (and drinking a bit as well). Here he is putting his face in the water after dinner when dad arrived to take over.
Where's Gerrit?

Here he is!

Its always fun at the pool because we tend to be the only ones that use it! Even though its a community pool for those that have condos there, we rarely see anyone else by the pool. Such a shame, but great for us. The kids love to raid the pool room and get all the fun toys out (look at the left corner of the picture) - Adam and Gerrit had fun with the blue whale for a while.

Following swimming and dinner, Gerrit got a quick wash in the tub.
Ya, Abby joined him. (I figured I'd get a picture of them in the tub to use at their high school graduations! Abby is a year older than Gerrit and has a sister now, so Gerrit will have his pick of the Rockne girls for prom!) We later thought we 'lost' the 2 of them as we couldn't find them for a few seconds, only to find them in a bedroom, with the door closed, hiding in the closet! We said we wouldn't worry about what went on in there until they are older!

We had a nice weekend, didn't get any 'work' done but we celebrated the end of summer in style! Its back to reality - at least for me as kiddies come tomorrow. How many days till June?

Looks like you all had a great holiday week-end. BTW, Gerrit wearing his yellow onesy is my new pc wallpaper ^_^
