pools rule

It's in the high FIFTIES here today so Finn's end-of-the-year picnic was postponed. I actually thought about turning the heat on but we just threw on some socks instead! Anyway, it's hard to believe that only a few days ago it was warm enough to swim in his pool (as seen below), and tomorrow it's supposed to be back in the 80s.

We are departing for a long road trip to Nebraska with Mimi and Papa on Friday morning, as they are eager to christen their gorgeous new Honda Odyssey with graham cracker crumbs and fisher price cd's. Crazy? Possibly. Fun? Undoubtedly. I'll be blogging early and often from the 17th on, so stay tuned.

Not only is his expression hilarious here but you can also see the little deck in the background that Papa built for their playhouse, and the little adirondack chairs Mimi found for the "front porch." Tess loves the playhouse - whenever she sees it she says, "PLAY! PLAY!"

Loves the water!
