Perfect Day For A Family Pool Party

711c

We spent the whole day at our dear friends Lisa and Bill’s home enjoying the best day of the summer to date playing in their gorgeous pool. We all got  a chance to catch up on what’s happening with everyone.

The only time the kids got out of the pool was to get a bite to eat and then it was splash! back in the pool.

Before you knew it her brother Liam found his way to the table and joined her in the fun. Natalie wanted to make a swing in the park. She would make so many creative play sites from this one Studio box, hours of engineering fun.
