Pool Party fun

The last two weekends we have been lucky and got to attend two pool parties.  Which was so nice because it has been so HOT and HUMID.
The first one was last Saturday for Nick's Comp Eagles hockey team.  We went out to Harold and Denise's house in Burton.  They are posted back to cold lake so it was fun to hang out with them before they leave.  We will sure miss Nathan who has played hockey with Nick.


Just before we headed out there we had a thunderstorm and hail and rain for about 30 to 40 min. So because of that it was really humid.  We were there for a couple hours and Dex called and said he was done work and that the storm had ripped open a window that was open a bit and broke it and sent the screen half way across the big room where the cadets eat.  Paul, Dana and I were boiling so we left Nick there and we headed home to sit in front of the fans.  Dex had also forgotten his house key and it was way too humid out for him to sit outside.  Nick had fun seeing his old team mates.

Dexter had a couple days off but last Thursday we got a phone call at 6:30am seeing if he could come in to work. He ended up staying all day. 

I was able to make a few cards too.


When ever I am in my room scrap booking Sasha and Gabby come in too, they always lay under my desk.


Saturday we had another pool party with Nick's AAA Fredericton Flames team.  We didn't tell Nick where we were going but he guessed it.  Paul and I felt it was important to go to help boost up Nick, and to get some advice on what to do about Nick not wanting to be a goalie anymore.  His Coach Steve said that Nick is at a much higher level to be playing summer hockey it would be better to put him into a goalie camp instead.  They went through the same thing with there son who is a goalie, he and Nick both came from winning AAA team then down playing with kids who are not competitive.  It has been very very frustrating for Nick as well for Paul and I.

So the party was a blast, the kids played road hockey, pool, games and ate food.  Dana had lots of fun too and played with a couple girls.




Dana had fun in the pool, it took her a bit before she went in but when she did she had a blast.

We had a couple of BB Q's and Steve cooked up some steaks and pork and then sliced it up man was it ever good.

Steve and Paul took care of the BB Q's, they are both wearing white shirts and red hats. The Mom's got the rest of the food ready.  It was so much fun hanging out with them all again. 



Paul and Brody starting the fire. We roasted marshmallows and had smors then someone brought  stuff to throw in the fire to change colour which was cool, and we had some fireworks.  It was super fun day and evening.
