We had a wonderful time with friends and church family last Sunday as we hosted a pool party for our adult Sunday school class. After church everyone met at our house, bringing salads, casseroles, desserts, and all manner of tasty treats! Jay was the official hot-dog burner, and we all had a blessed time of sharing a few hours together outside of Sunday school and church activity schedules. It was fun and refreshing!
The children filled the pool. I think my kids, who are so used to just being the two or three of them in the pool, were a little overwhelmed with the crowd! They are not used to public pools or even high pool traffic at the base pool. They had other kids to play games with, show off for, and chase in the water.
Even the pastor got in on the action! He loves kids, and really seems to enjoy playing with them a little more enthusiastically than Jay or myself do. He had them lined up to get tossed in the deep end, and then somehow, when my back was turned, the older kids became a living tower in my pool!
The younger children were able to spend some time before lunch playing with Legos and Littlest Pet Shop toys. Our family was delighted to be able to host this fun afternoon, and we look forward to doing it again soon!
