Happy Memorial Day and POOL!!!!

Happy Memorial Day to everyone- hope you've had a relaxing and enjoyable day away from the office!!!!

I think I've mentioned that Eric and I bit the bullet this summer and joined a pool. Now, for those of you on the West Coast, Eric swears to me there are no such things as private pools- which are very common here. In Richmond, there are probably 15 pools in the metro area where you pay an initiation fee and then a summer (or monthly) fee to belong. You can go VERY fancy or VERY not fancy. We've got friends who have gone the very fancy route but since we are not huge golfers or racquet sport players, we joined a pool that has tennis courts but that is really mostly just a summer pool and that is very inexpensive.

So the pool we joined is probably 10 minutes away by car- and has two big pools and two good baby pools.

Vake loves the pool- and I love, and Taren really loves, how it wears the boys out. Eric and I took Vake to the pool today for about two hours- by the end he was ready just to lie down on the pool deck and go to sleep and he barely made it through his lunch AND his is still sleeping 2 and a half hours later- YAY.
