Forget the Forecast

I expressed probably more than my share of frustration with the forecast for this holiday weekend. This is the ATL, after all - where was the pool weather? What were we going to do with ourselves?!

Fortunately, our intrepid - and more importantly pool-possessing - neighbors were undaunted by the rainy forecast and did not cancel their pool party. Sure, a torrential downpour came through at the exact moment that the party was scheduled to begin. Lucky for us, Danny was still in the midst of a deep sleep, so by the time we were ready to stroll over, the skies had cleared enough for the kids to put on their suits and splash. We adults had zero desire to get into the still chilly water, but we didn't have to. It was win-win!





Barbecue, beer, baseball, jumping rope and sprinklers: what better way to usher in summer? Many thanks to the Lawleys for their generous hospitality, helping to make it a memorable Memorial Day weekend.
