Playing Pool

 I have A LOT of photos of my family in this hot tub.

 It is an accurate reflection of how central to our vacation this hot tub truly was.

 Why yes, the pool was eighty-five degrees and the air was eighty-five as well.

Orelia and Bennett are like their mama, however, and can be a bit wimpy when it comes to water temperature.

 It's a good thing the hot tub was so picturesque since it was in about half my vacation photos.

 Bennett especially loved standing and just playing with his trucks while hot tubbin'.

 We couldn't really even get him to look up from his toys to take a family photo.

 John is probably saying something rude here, but I had to include it since it's the only group photo where Bennett is smiling.

 Toilet humor doesn't work yet to get Bennett to engage during photos, but I'm sure we will be there soon.

 Orelia finally found some fun in the big pool the last couple of days.

 Daddy taught her to scream "cowabunga!" while jumping in the water, and she then proceeded to play the "cowabunga game" for the next hour.

While she may be like her mama in her water temperature preferences, she is like her daddy in her adventurous spirit.

If there is an endorphin rush to be had, she will find it.

On our last morning, Orelia got to spend one last hour playing cowabunga, and I happily watched and took photos from the hot tub.  True to form.
