A craft and a splash

This morning I went to Joann fabrics and Jack NEEDED to have this fabric. So I got some fabric and a pillow and during his nap I made him this: He's been carrying it around telling me all about the trucks ever since. Hilarious!

Then we went to Emily1's house for a pool party!

Some old friends were there! Ria, Jillian and Amedeo

Andreas

and Colin (with Amedeo and Jillian)

The slide for the pool was a HUGE hit. The kids all seemed to want to climb the slide but they didn't want to come down. We didn't have slide-fear it was more like king of the mountain. They all wanted to stay at the top! I'm so proud that Jack could climb to the top himself. I think the other kids did it too, but I didn't think he could because the ladder was steep and not like stairs. That will teach me to question his abilities!

Weeee!


Sometimes the line for the slide got a little long, but this is a good lesson for life. Lines are everywhere and they are unavoidable.

Do you have a sewing machine? Or did you stich it by hand?

I have a sweing machine but i stitched this by hand, getting it out of storage and setting it up seemed like more work than grabbing a needle and thread.
