It's been miserably hot here this spring so awhile back I decided to buy the kids a little pool for the back patio. It was definitely one of the best $80 pesos I've ever spent;) They've had a ball playing for hours back there, staying cool. Halle's kind of over it now.....so thank God we're headed home this weekend so she can have fun in big girl pools....as she calls them.
This is what spring time looked like on our patio, before the scorching heat came and dried everything up.......even watering everyday isn't enough for our poor plants and flowers! I wanted to remember how pretty it looked at one point! We spent one saturday morning completely cleaning the back patio....the kids were great helpers and helped daddy scrub the barbequer! It felt so nice to do some spring cleaning.....we really miss that! At one point we even had a beautiful lush green mint plant, a tomato plant that grew a few small red ones, a green plant that literally grew on it's own(we have no idea what it is, but we re-planted it into a pot) and a chili plant too! The kids and I made some yummy mojitos with the leaves of the mint plant, their's of course, virgins;) I wasn't prego......yet!
Can't wait to see you guys!!!!!!!
