We had the most fun last night! We volunteered to keep Abbie and Nina overnight while Arne and Beth went to a wedding and boy, did we have a blast! Earlier in the week, I asked Sue if we could bring the girls over for a swim in her pool. She graciously said yes and suggested we order some pizza and hang out. Matt and Sally decided to come along too which was awesome as they spent most of the evening in the pool with Abbie and Nina :). One of my favorite parts of the night was pulling into Sue's driveway and Nina saying, "first let's go to the pool, THEN we can come to this house". I told her that the pool was in the backyard of this house and I don't think she believed me. When the girls looked out the kitchen window and saw the pool, their eyes popped out of their heads. So cute! Mike would have loved it!!! It was the perfect environment for Abbie to learn to put her head under the water (Sally being a very seasoned swim lesson teacher/lifeguard/swim coach). Attached is a video of the first time she did and by the end of the night, Abbie was a pro!
We carried out some Home Run Inn pizza and sat by the pool and ate. We all enjoyed catching up with Sue and rehashing Brendan's fun graduation party. Sue told the girls about when she was a flower girl in a wedding and now Abbie wants a yellow dress like Sue had.
Such a great night! Lots of wonderfully good karma family time. Perfect way to spend a summer Friday night. Thanks, Sue!
