Swimming in Eden - Allen Reunion

We made great use of the hot tubs while we were in Eden.  We tried to go to the pool but it was too crowded and then there was lightning so we headed back home and played in the hot tub.  It was actually perfect, they all had a great time.

 We also spent a morning at the Pineview Reservoir.  Tommy didn't enjoy it until I finally put his water socks on and then he had a grand time.  The water was cold but that didn't hold the bigger kids back.  Ashley loved the sand, especially warming up by laying in it - she was covered literally from head to toe.

Pineview Reservoir

One of the days at Eden we spent the afternoon at Pineview Reservoir. The kids had so much fun playing in the water and the sand.  Mark and Annie brought the Eddy's boat and Mark spent the day on the water giving everybody a turn.  My kids loved having their turn and I even got up on the skiis (it's been a very long time).  My kids loved riding on the Easy Ski which is kind of an inflatable waverunner that you sit/stand on holding a ski rope and it gives the feeling of skiing. It was fun to watch them.  Thanks Mark and Annie!
