Father's Day celebration

This year's Father's Day was celebrated at the pool side club house.  SIL organised a pot luck get together from noon time.  We went there earlier than many of them.  Our girls kept nagging to go for a swim in the pool, so off they went for a dip without realising it was around 1.00pm, the sun was at its hottest.  It was a very bad idea to be in the pool at this hour, so I quickly get them out of the pool before they got sunburn (which they did).

I prepared some egg and cheese sandwiches for the pot luck.  Like usual, SILs and BILs brought in food excessively, however no one remembered to bring drinking water or beverages.  Luckily Clet was wise enough to bring a bottle of water to ease our thirst before BIL brought some water in.

After lunch, the children just couldn't wait to go to the pool anymore even the weather was still very warm.  They started the dip in the pool from 2.30pm.  The children were in the small pool while the adults (uncles and nephews) were playing water ball games in the bigger pool.

after more than 2 hours in the pool, the children were really hungry, whacked roti canai till clean.  Crystal & Pearl were so tired that they felt asleep in the car on the way home.

  1. Looks like you had a lot of fun. Your swimming pools are beautiful! I could sure use a dip in a pool. It is pretty hot around here.
