The Millbrook Pool

It's our second summer up here and we finally made it to the "pool". It's more like a lake but without the plant life and fish. I guess it's a pool. They drain the water after Labor Day, but there's sand. I don't know, they call it a pool, so it's a pool.

Anyway, WE. HAD. A. BLAST! There's only a few weeks of the season left, so we won't get the pass this year. I wish it wasn't so expensive, we would go daily. Oh and if I also had 3 extra pairs of eyes and arms. It was easy today, I had Grandma and Grandpa with me, I couldn't do it alone. And I still haven't gotten my license, so I literally can't get there alone! I'm pathetic!

But yea, oh man, the girls were wiped out. We were there nearly 4 hours, got home and the girls didn't fight at all, they were too exhausted. They played outside for a few minutes, ate, watched a movie, and they went to bed. I love days like this. I love when they get along. Oh how I love days free of whining!

Grandpa was trying to teach the girls how to swim and they were doing so well. Maddy was a natural...floating on her own (with floaties) kicking, swimming, I think she had the most fun out of all of them. We only left because we started getting cold! It's over 90 degrees and we were cold! It was a great day. I didn't bring the camera because I was afraid of losing it or someone stealing it. Glad I didn't, someone stole Daisy's float boat. Not a big deal, it was only $2 and she didn't like it.

It was supposedly crowded...these people have never tried to do anything in NYC. I wouldn't call a handful of kids a crowd! The pool was huge and we had plenty of room to swim around. El and I may take the girls tomorrow. Don't tell them, it's a secret!

Sooo, come visit and bring the kids to the pool!! I'll make an awesome lunch! There's picnic tables, a playground, grills, and hot food if you don't want to bring any. Oh and an awesome little BBQ spot next store that has yummy food and delish ice cream. Seriously, come!
