Gettin' warmed up

We are getting warmed up, so to speak, for the trip to Hawaii. The outside temperature here in New Orleans has been around 80 degrees recently and we've already bought pool chairs, towels, fun-noodles for the pool and Bek's bought new swim suits for the pool across the street.

We tried it out last Sunday. The sun was out most of the time. That was good. The water was freezing. That was bad. But we jumped in anyway and even brought Same in for her first swim. Maybe it was for the same reason we weren't happy with the pool, but when we set Same in the water, she beelined to the wall and hoisted herself out.

We're hoping this weekend will be even better.
