Summer Swim Pics

We love summertime at Grandma and Grandpa's pool!  Took a little bit longer to take our first swim due to the pool getting a little facelift (a new liner), but finally it was ready!  And so were we!
















































































































Reese and Cru took two months of private swimming lessons from an amazing instructor.  I remember dreading swimming lessons as a kid, but they actually looked forward to them....for the most part.  Cru had a little trouble one week when he was first learning to go under water while blowing water out his nose, so he cried and refused to participate.  Even ran away from Bonnie Sue when he was supposed to be jumping off the board....I can laugh about it now, but talk about embarrassing!!!


































The confidence and skills they developed were so worth it! 

























































































We had a couple weeks of extreme heat, so some days, the kids swam up to three times a day!  The water felt especially good after 6:00pm baseball games!  Our friends joined us and we joined them for a couple of those evening swims.










































































































The heat clearly got to my head....













































































































































































































Speaking of friends, we spent many days with the Harlins at the Lindsborg pool....love that place!  Love that family even more!








That's Reese at the bottom of the slide....she must have worn her big girl panties that day!  So proud of her!

Ok, back to more random pics.....

























With all that said, we say good-bye to Grandma and Grandpa's pool..... 


We already miss you sooooo much....
