Swim Party!

For Little Man's 5th birthday, he's been insistent that he have a swim party.  Given where we live and the time of year, I had no idea how to make that work.  Then I discovered this indoor pool complete with diving boards and slides, and decently warm water! (That last one's important to me!)  So we headed up to this pool with a few of Little Man's buds and had a great time splashing and celebrating!  The theme was Star Wars, so we had Yoda Soda, Gogurt-sabers, Pizza-destroyers, and a Star Wars Lego cake!





Playing Marco Polo
Little Miss does not love the water, so she stayed
dry or wrapped in a towel most of the time

Giving it a try!

This little guy loved the slide!

Loves the diving boards
Just before his belly flop

He desperately wanted to try out this high dive, and I
decided to let him decide once he got up there if he was ready.
My heart was pounding because it's a pretty big drop for a new
swimmer, but he decided he wasn't quite ready to take the plunge, which
was just fine with me!





Enjoying the BIG slide!  Notice the tongue!





He was very polite when opening gifts, making
sure to say thank you to each person....made me so proud!  He really is
growing up.
