off to make-believe Mesa

Ivar and Elsie came down in their swim suits with their suitcases packed and announced that they are "going to Mesa!" They flew on the colorful couch to get there and when they arrived, Ivar pulled a swimming pool out of his suitcase, much like a Mary Poppins bag. He spread out blue towels and then brown towels for the sand. And my heart swelled with pride. This kid has a sweet imagination. And then Elsie declared that the blue blanket that was in the sun was the hot tub. She's a genius!
Hattie was the life guard and made sure everyone stayed safe in the water.

My kids had on their suits this week too. They set up a pool with blankets and pretended we were at the stigmans backyard pool. They packed up a bag too! I guess everybody needs a vacation to the pool right now....

Look at Hattie, the Life guard!!!
Just today my girls said "We miss Grandma and Grandpa" and Svea added, "Let's go to Mesa!"
Oh, Honey, how I WISH.
