The pool is open and is in swimming condition, though the water is still a bit cloudy and the bottom still needs to be vacuumed (as soon as I can see it). Yesterday evening, though, Jenna took the first dip in the pool. Andy was working on the concrete walkway that will run under the gate, and Jenna, Emily and Ben were playing around next to the pool. The water is still in the 60's, and the air hasn't been very warm, so we weren't planning on having the kids swim for another week or two, but while Jenna and Emily were messing around near the deep end, Jenna tripped and fell in, and she was not happy about it one bit. Jeans and sneakers are not the preferred bathing gear. Luckily, she has taken swimming lessons and was able to doggy paddle to the side and climb out. Also lucky, was the fact that Andy was wearing a mask while working on the walkway, so Jenna couldn't see him laughing. She was quite a sight, dripping wet from head to toe.
I guess it didn't bother her too much, though, because the next morning she was right back in the pool, along with the rest of the kids. Summer has now officially begun in the Kennedy home, and next Saturday it's going to be in the 80's-YEAH!!!
