The vote was unanimous, this was the BEST pool party we have ever been to, with (by far) the best view! It was absolutely magical to spend the afternoon at our new friend Dawn's house! We were told by my new friend Sandra to be sure not to miss one of Dawn's pool parties, but she definitely didn't explain why. The surprise was on us :) Boy were we VERY glad we decided to make this 40 minute blind trek to this gorgeous haven!
Merrick had a blast hanging out in the (only warm) hot tub. Dawn had so many toys for the kids to play with and he was super happy about that!
Here is a video of Rowan showing off her moves! This was toward the end of the afternoon, so they were all slowing down a bit.
The highlight of the afternoon for the girls - their new found friendships! They met some really sweet sisters who love to swim and LOVE playing with their American Girl dolls! Merrick was also happy that they have a younger brother! Bring on the play date!
Here is a video of Kierce making an attempt to dive into the pool! Rowan and I were so proud that she tried her hardest to dive. I might have to bust out some of my old school life guarding skills to ease her into diving, first off the edge, then off the diving board :)
The view at the top of their driveway by the entrance to their house was just gorgeous. I had to sneak a picture as we were leaving. The kids and I realized as we were driving down the mountain that we stayed for 6 hours!!! It was just too hard to cut the fun off! Not only did they swim, but jumped on their trampoline, played inside with all of their fun toys and Merrick even played with their sand table! This was such a fun day, we all felt really special to be able to enjoy this type of experience!
