Pool on the Prairie

ND visit: July 25 - July 30, 2008 continued...After Mom and I spent our mornings relaxing on the porch with Eleanor, the guys would come home from their golfing and most afternoons were spent by the pool in the backyard. Mom bought this kiddy pool last year and when she pulled it out this year to wash it out (or should I say Dad did that?) here their were 2 pools! Little did we know that Mom was such a shop-lifter!


Taking a break from the pool with Daddy.


The water was pretty cold, so Eleanor wasn't always so willing to actually swim. But, she got her feet wet!

Our happy girl...







I wanted to share some shots from last year. Since I only started the blog this year, a lot of Eleanor's first year are on the computer, but I've had no reason to post them. But, just for fun, check out the different one year makes!

It's so fun to look back and see the changes, isn't it?! Cute cute cute!

Fun to see you all on Sunday. Looking forward to book club tonight!

Love, Amy

I think I see a little bit of mischief in her eyes in that last shot. You can almost see the wheels turning! She is quite a beauty. I love her swim suits, ha! So cute! We love you and miss you. Janis and Jim

It was truly a delightful visit.
When we were taking one of our walks I was walking backwards trying to get pics and said to Eleanor, "walk this way" (meaning this direction). She turned around and started walking backwards. What a doll!

I love the moniker that Eleanor has given me. Bahnka

Talk about a double bonus--first year, one pool; second year, two pools! Also, our bathing beauty had at least 3 bathing suits, too! Brynn clothes her well, I must say, due to bargains and wonderful hand-me-downs (Mari Lee's friend). Karma
