Ethan, Ella and I spent the day in Pilot Mountain playing with our friends the Goins. It was hot for early June in Pilot Mountain and the pool wasn't open yet so we decided to bring out the slip-in-slide and sprinklers. Ethan, Colby and Addison had a grand time sliding down the hill and running wildly through the sprinklers. Miss Ella was a bit stand offish and decided a bucket might be more her speed. When Donna filled the bucket up for her instead of pouring and splashing the water she decided she wanted to get in the bucket. What a funny girl! Donna and I decided this must be a true Pilot Mountain swimming pool! Donna and her family live in her grandmother's old house. I spent many days of my childhood at this house playing and laughing with her. What fun it was to watch our own children play together in the yard we use to play kickball, hide and seek, and countless other games. I guarantee Granny Fulk is smiling down from heaven as she watches and listens to the giggles and squeals filling up her yard once again. Sometimes it is the simplest days in life that bring us the most pleasure. Here's to you Granny Fulk, your backyard is still the best! Thanks for the memories and ones yet to be made!
