I.E.S. Pool Party

I.E.S. stands for International Elementary School and this is the group of teachers that I have been friends with since I've worked there. I left International in 2000 and at that time none of us had kids. Can you imagine the happy hours that we got ourselves involved in?? Well, these days... happy hour has a whole different meaning (aka the time after a swimming party when all the kids take a nice long nap! LOL)!
Anyway, we try our best to keep in touch with one another. Together, we have a total of 10 kids all under 8! We had one full pool! You put 10 kids, 2 babysitters, 6 adults, a few cocktails, and one large Southern California earthquake and you get one crazy day...

Will and Luke (Rory's two oldest)

P.J. and Lauren (son and daughter of Laura)


Baby Kate
(The youngest and only girl of Rory's four children! So sad, I missed getting a picture of Jack)

Bella and Nate (son and daughter of Nilda)

The boys hangin' out in the boat!

The Babysitters did a great job (Christina and Tara) helping out with all the kids in the pool.

Tara spent a good portion of her time watching out for daredevil Charlie!

The cupcake eating spot!
My little angels.

Tina braved the child and splash filled waters with a smile.

Lorena enjoying some snacks in the shade.

Tina is givin' some love to Baby Kate.

And last but not least...
Hands down (no pun intended) the best picture of the day!!
That's my girl!

Good to see you all! Let's do it again!
