Spring Tradition

Every Spring we have a tradition at our house.  When we've had a few days of warm weather and are sure most of the leaves are out of the trees we'll uncover the pool.  It needs to be a sunny day as the pool cover needs to be spread out to dry and cleaned off in the driveway.  Well, Sunday was that day.  The LOML and son mowed the backyard and did some leaf clean up and then we took the cover off of the pool.  Not that exciting, I know, but there's another part to this tradition.  M always HAS to get in the pool.  He never thinks it's "that cold" and he needs to be the one to be the first in it.  This year was no exception.  The pool temp was probably 50 and he quickly decided maybe that wasn't such a good idea but, to prove us wrong, stayed in another 20 minutes or so.  Boys....
