Alaythia's Swim Lessons

 Alaythia just finished up some swim lessons.  (We enrolled a little late, so she was the only one they could squeeze in this year.)  She did a great job pushing herself to try new things, and she really enjoyed the mommy-daughter time we had.  Such a special memory!

As a side note, we used the Sanderson swim lessons, and I was pleased with them.  Our instructor (Reggie) was fun and engaging but also able to challenge the kids, and the facility was very nice and easy to use.  

Grandma Mary's Summer Visit

Just a few weeks ago Grandma Mary came and spent some time with us.  We had a lot of fun with her, and the kids especially enjoyed having her here!  They got to do a few special things like visit the library during story hour and have extra hands at the swimming pool.  Here are some photos from our time together:
