Just a few swimming pics:
I know the white legs are shocking. I am approximately a half a shade darker now, after spending days outside.
Generally when we get home from swimming Sade goes right down for her nap. That means she goes to sleep with wet, sunscreen added hair. Yesterday she woke up with it looking like this:
It is quite the look!
I would now like to take a minute to complain. Tuesday night Eric was out of town so I decided to take the kids to family swim night at the Silver Mesa Pool. Here follows my list of gripes:
- When we arrived the line to get in snaked through the parking lot. Largely because they only had one person accepting money!
- After swimming for 5 minutes I heard the life guards blowing their whistles and telling everyone to get out of the pool. I then looked to my left and saw POO floating not even 5 feet from where I was standing! It was horribly disgusting.
- We then waited while they cleaned it up, and then waited another 30 minutes to get back in the pool. At this point I tried to convince my children to leave, but they insisted on staying.
- The all teenage lifeguard staff, who seem much more interested in hanging out together than in doing any sort of lifeguard duties.
- Now, I am really quite liberally minded when it comes to swimwear. However even I was shocked by some of the outfit choices. And I am not talking about the adults! I am talking about the pre-teens that were wearing some of the most unsupportive swimwear I have seen in some time. I saw a few body parts that I would not mind never seeing again.
- Sadie cried or whined nearly the entire time we were there!
But, Megan and Jackson had a great time!!

Hey Girl ~ you are more than welcome to come over to my house as well. The pool is finally fixed! It's not as nice and fancy as the one in the picture, but it's a different one.
Note to self: don't bother with the sliver mesa pool. Stick with your awesome friends with pools. :)
dave was there tuesday too and said all the same things. i too haves seen way too many body parts at SM pool where are these girls mothers? oh yeah they are wearing the exact same suit!
LOVE HER HAIR!!! I really need to bring my camera to take pictures of swim days. I will host one soon!!!
That Sadie is too cute! I would have left SM's pool and demanded my money back and then marched to the pediatricians office for roto virus vaccines all around! I too am pool hopping this summer. I think we have been to 4 different ones this summer. It is survival of the pool-less :)
That pool slide looks fun! I totally agree with your list of gripes about SM. Unbelievable!
