Summer sure is flying by. We've been keeping busy, mostly in the water. We kicked off summer with a trip to Mud Island.
Wait, are anybody's eyes open?

Chan is very excited to be at Mud Island
Summer also brings swimming lessons with Grandma. This year Grandma decided that Callie and Morgan would take lessons in both sessions. The first session was repeat of last year, mainly a whole lot of screaming, crying, and shaking on the steps. But somewhere towards the end, Callie decided she could do it. She now LOVES to swim. We can't get her out of the pool. She can jump off the diving board and swim to the side. (which she does about 50 times every time we take her swimming.) She can swim the length of the pool. She even likes to float.
It's truly miraculous. My Mom and I just keep looking at each other and asking, "Who is this child?"
Callie and her class
Chandler didn't quite understand why he needed swimming lessons, since he's already a good swimmer. He did learn some new strokes, including the butterfly. And, no, he's not skinny.
Some of the dads were so excited about swimming lesson graduation that they came in matching outfits. Aren't they supportive?
Last weekend found us back at Mud Island. We better enjoy it why we can. School starts in 3 weeks!
