Schools OUT!!!

The End of the School Year Party has become a tradition of us. It started when Rylie was is in Kindergarten. My friend and I thought it would be fun to have a little swim party for Rylie and Abby (her daughter) to celebrate school being out. Each year we have continued the "tradition" as the girls call it, adding new friends each year. This year Rylie and Abby completed fourth grade, Ashton and Hannah completed second grade, Davin and Chloe completed kindergarten. So needless to say the party keeps getting bigger. This year we had over 50 kids swimming and having a blast!!! Its a good thing our kids are all the same ages so at least we are stuck in this together.

Some of Rylies best friends are boys and every year they have came and swam with us but this year Katie and I noticed that the girls seemed to stick together and the boys stuck together, I guess they really are getting older and boys are BOYS and not just friends.

We have recruited help to get everyone fed. My mom loves to stop by and check out the happenings and now that Paige lives here I am afraid she is a regular after school party mom. We initiated her last year and now she is a pro.


We had hot dogs, chips n' dip, drinks, fruit, and more treats than even ALL of US
could eat in one afternoon.


Between the big water slide, the pool, the trampoline, water balloon volleyball, and of course a water balloon fight everyone was soaked and smiling all day!! Can't wait until next year!!!
