It's done!





The big VGRA 4th of July Pool Party is done!  Over!  Finished!  Completed!  Ended...  for a year!  It was a LONG, beautiful, hot,fantastic day!  I have to say that it was the best 4th of July party the pool has had since I have been on the board!  We had an ENORMOUS turn out!  Really!  The rough figures stand at 239 members, 87 guests, plus about 40 board members and their families, and 15 lifeguards.  We are looking at over 360 people at the pool today!  And except for one incident, everyone had a lot of fun!  My oldest three kids swam in races. 


 Brooklyn and Ben took 1st, and Josh Jr. came in a close 2nd for his race.  And I think the boys came in second for the watermelon relay. They won money to the snack bar (always a good thing), and some of them CLEANED up on the money dive!  I think it is safe to say the kids had fun :)  The pool might have even made money this year on the pool party, something it has NEVER done! 



All around great day!  And to end the day we had a great BBQ at Josh's parent's house, were I won at a game of Hearts.  And then Fireworks at Jaimee and Daniel's.  Happy 4th of July!
