It's Summertime

This week was hot here in the Valley of the Sun. 96 degrees hot. Good thing we have a new pool! It's a luxury pool with a slide :). The girls were so excited when Jonathan set it up, they could hardly stand just waiting inside until Dad said they could jump in.

I love these swimming suits from Target. They make it so that I have less skin area to cover with sunscreen. Jonathan is really big into sunscreen. I guess seeing skin cancer multiple times in real life would make a person particular that way.

Once the pool was ready, Sami jumped in swam her little heart out. She didn't want to get out, even after she got so cold she was shivering. She LOVES the slide, and wants to go swimming every day. And she will probable get her wish most days this summer. Janie bug thought the water was too cold and watched Sami from the side lines. But as it gets hotter, I think she'll join her sister in the water fun.

Life is so good. Jonathan goes back to Kirksville on Wednesday for his graduation. I will fly out on Friday and come back Sunday morning. For a while I didn't think I would get to go, and I am so grateful that I get to celebrate with him. Jonathan's mom and sister are going to watch the girls for us. It's such a blessing because I think they would really struggle with the traveling and sitting through the ceremony. So we will make our final trip to Missouri this week. And we will be done with school. Forever. Hopefully.
