Swimming with the folks from Salem

This last weekend we were invited to go swimming with our family in Salem. Maeby was a tropper - she'd already been in the pool for almost 2 1/2 hours earlier that day and still had a ton of fun in the pool for another 2 hours that evening with this crew. It was beautiful, warm weather and fun to get to swim with cousins!

Sara & Hayliegh.

Me, working with Alec on his kicking. He had been down at our house a few weeks ago and we worked on stuff there, glad to see he's been practicing. He's made some HUGE improvements.

Jayna was throwing all kinds of dives off the board. She's got a knack for it (even if some of those were unintentional belly flops!)

Alec needed either uncle Jeremy or daddy to go with him off the board.

Maeby, as you can tell, was exhausted by the end, but still happy.

Maeby going off the diving board. She didn't like that we "helped" her at all - she wanted to do it on her own. Daredevil.

Mae under the sea with Papa.

I think this might be my new favorite picture of Maeby.

Jayna being a goofball. She was not up for letting me help her learn to swim better like her brother, but she was MUCH more into letting me take lots of underwater pictures of her!

Hayliegh didn't last long, but she had fun watching everyone swim and was a huge help giving us all towels when it was time for us all to go home for dinner.


The kids weren't really done once we left - in fact they went out back and played in Chris and Sara's backyard pool for a while longer. They slept well that night though.
