This was a new one for us...we haven't enjoyed too many pool parties during our Thanksgiving celebrations in years past. In fact, this might just be the first time we ever swam outdoors in November. We are thankful that our extended family was willing to share their new pool and hot tub AND they even heated it for us. There weren't any adults brave enough to take the plunge regardless of the toasty warm water temperature. That left more space for the 16 and under crowd to have a great time together. Luke and his numerous cousins loved throwing and retrieving these torpedoes.

Andy loves the water as long as he wears a 'floatie'.
Hmmm...what's this waterfall all about, anyway? I think he was tempted to descend it a time or two but it isn't a slide and broken bones were not in our holiday plans.
Eli slept through the first pool party but when he woke up we plunked him in the pool in his awesome lady bug flotation device. He also loved the torpedoes and spent most of his time throwing them under and waiting for his cousins to retrieve them. I don't understand why kids never seem to tire of that game.

Thank you, dear cousins for sharing your pool and your home with us. We had a great time!
