Last night was the annual pool party for our Jr. High group. This is always held at a park that has a waterpark/aquatic center, which is loads of fun for our boys since we only swim in “regular” pools most of the time. There are also several other young kids whose parents are Jr. High leaders, so the boys have a great time running around with them (and with the teens, too, of course!) The first 2 hours were held at the park, where we played on the playground, ate hot dogs, ran around, rode bikes, sang worship songs, listened to a short talk, and just generally had fun. Then we went to the pool for the next 2 hours (although we only stayed an hour and a half) where the boys got to slide and swim and swallow water to their hearts’ content.
I didn’t take any pictures during the pool time, but here are a few from the park portion:
Aiden (finally) learned how to pedal on his trike!
Will just got this bike fixed up last weekend and he loves it! I think this picture is so cute of he and Josh “racing” - he’s a very encouraging older brother (when he chooses to be).
Josh was kind of out of it for awhile (he’s teething something fierce), but here he is with Elle, Kelli’s daughter. Elle was really sweet with him, and she also enjoyed “bossing” him around a little later on - it was pretty cute.
Aiden, Elle, and Josh playing with the drinking fountain. They were soaked before we ever got to the pool!
This child loves balls.

Some pictures now… and then (the pool party 3 years ago)

My fun sister Amanda!
So what do you think? Do Will and Josh look alike? (Will was about a month older than Josh is now in these pictures.)
