Is it just me, or the longer the weekend, the harder it is to get back to reality? After four days off the only thing I wanted to do on Sunday night was cross my fingers really hard and hope for another day off. Sadly, that didn’t work out for me all that well, but I do have some fun pictures to share from the weekend.
If I had to choose a theme for the holiday weekend, it would be water. A lot of water. On Thursday, we headed to Tommy’s aunt’s house for a 4th of July pool party. We had a ton of fun swimming in their gorgeous pool and catching up with friends and family.
Since no 4th of July weekend is complete without a trip to the beach, on Friday we headed out to Long Island for more fun in the sun. It was incredibly hot and the ocean breeze didn’t help much so we didn’t stick around for very long, but Alex enjoyed the time he got to spend splashing in the surf.
On Friday night we headed out to the Poconos. The city skyline is something I could never get sick of.
We spent Saturday poolside and when I say Saturday, I mean all of it. The first words out of Alex’s mouth when he woke up were can we jump in the pool and we had to pry him out of the pool around 7pm. He is getting so good at swimming, that I’m able to lounge while he splashes happily in the pool.
On Sunday, we spent the day running in the sprinklers and washing the car. The real feel temperature was 101 degrees when I checked so the ice cold well water felt amazing!
What did you do this weekend?
incredibly jealous of your weekend in the water. we had a weekend in the water as well. rained the entire time. more than 5″ in four days. but time off is time off. glad someone got to enjoy a pool!

I’m jealous of your weekend in the water! I spent the majority of mine cleaning and organizing, which somehow didn’t seem nearly as fun. 😛
Tommy’s aunt’s pool is lovely!

Looks like a pretty fabulous weekend to me!! We spent a bunch of time in the water too. Isn’t that what you’re supposed to do on summer days??

Water sounds like the perfect summer theme! I live right by the beach in California and I hardly ever swim (shame on me, I know!). I need to try to get more into the pool/beach since nothing screams vacation like getting wet!

I miss the pool we had at our villa in Maui, plus our neighbors have a pool, and in the evening I hear them having fun in it – very jealous!!

Looks like a fun weekend! 🙂 I wanted to go in the water but the ocean temperature was 60 degrees! Way too cold to go in.
