Summer Fun!

Some of my favorite childhood memories were the summers I spent with my grandparents back in Robstown, Texas (a very small, small town outside of Corpus Christi) To some of you this may sound crazy, but for me it was all but "normal and fun!" Back then my grandparents had no AC, but it definitely wasn't as HOT as it is today. So what did my grandma do to cool me down....take out the round silver bucket (much like the round yellow bucket in the pictures below) fill it with water and put me in for a dip.
Today was just like those hot summer days. My sister, her family and our friends Amber and Gill came over today and David grilled some hamburgers. As we sat outside, waiting for that cool, evening breeze, my sister turned on the sprinkler for Christopher and Gill and Amber's daughter Jayla. They were not adventurous enough to handle the sprinkler so my sister went to plan B and got out the yellow tub. They were too cute. Funny how history just keeps repeating itself.
