Poolside Ice Cream Treat Fun
Are you enjoying summer? As I mentioned yesterday, we have our friends from Rhode Island visiting for the week. They have seven kiddos. That's right, seven! So, we've been doing a lot of fun kid oriented activities. Yesterday, I coordinated a surprise party for their 8 year old. Today, we spent the day poolside. Everyone was having so much fun, I decided to pack up some frozen treats to keep everyone cool. This is a sponsored post by Lunchbox about Flavor Flurry Fun, all opinions are my own.
Since the pool is in our private community, I was able to run home and just grab a bucket and fill it with ice. I packed up Klondike Bars and Popsicles, knowing that they would be guaranteed crowd-pleaser! (They totally were by the way).
It's amazing how a simple treat can bring such big smiles. It was probably the ONLY thing that would remotely tempt the kids to get out of the pool for a bit and take a little break.
Just look at this little guy, such a cutie! Totally posing for the camera.
He's getting used to Auntie Dawn asking him to say cheese, or ice cream in this case.
All the kids appreciated the treat, our Jo' is 15 and then the triplets who are 13 got just as excited about having a treat as the little ones ranging from 2 to 8 years old. Phew, that's a lot of kids.
I'm feeling extra grateful for the good and simple things in life that bring us together.

How are you keeping cool this summer? What have you been up to?
Those are some great tips, pictures, and some really adorable and beautiful kids!
Your kids are super adorable! I'm staying cool by staying indoors as much as possible. But, the weather hasn't been too bad so thankfully it's been comfortable.
We do everything we can to stay cool down here. It gets HOT in Florida.
Ice cream goes perfet with a summer pool party! Eating ice cream when it's hot outside just feels right!
That's because it IS right! It's so right.
Nothing beats a a cold Klondike bar on a hot summer day. You don't even have to be by the pool to enjoy them.
I tell you, the pool is a great place to offer treats like this. If they get messy, oh well, shower off and jump in the pool. HA! Thanks for the sweeps, too 🙂
EXACTLY! You can't really make too much of a mess that way. Plus, there's no furniture to be ruined.
Ice cream is my family’s favorite summer treat. A year’s supply would be great to win.
Ice cream, summer and pools go hand in hand! You can have one without the other (in my opinion) You all look like you had a great time. I am coming to your next pool party 😉
Absolutely! Forget Blogher. The next big blogging convention will be The Dawntastic Poolside Bash!
Nothing beats cooling off on a hot summer day than my favorite ice cream treat, a Klondike bar. We can go through a box of them in a few days!
It's the same way at my house. If I don't stuff one or two to the back of the freezer, I won't get any.
We LOVE popsicles at our house! Nothing better on a hot summer day!
Oh my! You're the super summer mom! It doesn't get much better than ice cream while swimming!! And a freebie too. Wish me luck!!
Good luck! Honestly, if you have ice cream, you're always the super summer mom. 😉
Those are PERFECT pool party snacks! I need to start hanging out with you more 😉
You know where I live! Pool party at my house! =D
I love Klondike Bars! They are one of my favorite summertime treats too 🙂
This is the best, Dawn! You can't get any better than playing in the pool, cooking in the sun on the outside, and freezing up your insides with frozen nom noms!
Exactly! Nothing says summer like frozen treats!
Very cute little kids! We have Klondike and Popsicle in our fridge too ready to go for the weekend!
