    Pool days, baseball games, kayaking, and I just love being able to go anywhere in a sun dress and flip flops :)

    I’m always looking forward to summer and getting out to the beach! The ocean, the sand, the sun... it’s where I belong B)

    This summer there's going to be a lot of fishing, camping & drinking all the Moscow Mules.

    This week I got our Schlitterbahn water park season passes, ordered our party invitations for our Summer 2019 Kickoff tiki party at my dad's beach house (we spend every other weekend there,) going bathing suit shopping this weekend with his daughters, got our community pool passes, and started looking at new grills! Already bought a new RTIC cooler, passports in the works so we can travel to Mexico to visit his dad once school lets out, and also planning a trip to go tubing on the Guadalupe River!

    We LOVE summer!!!

    I’m excited for camping, hiking the trails, and a road trip. And of course just the warm weather, bbqing, swimming and sunshine. I second Denny throwing a pool party.

    @denny_mac can we have the MFP pool party at your place this year?

    Yeah... How about "no". For two reasons:
    1. My place isn't big enough for that kind of party
    2. I don't want to.

    But you can come over if you want @RunHardBeStrong
    If you want to help me clean the pool out, that is :)
    I can always use help with the yardwork!

    Only if you promise that I can ride an alligator while skimming the pool.

    The logistics would suck though. Date? Location? Flights? Accommodations? Etc

    Fun idea.
