Swimming with friends





The brave award of the day goes to Dani. Sam is our little fish, and Taylor enjoyed experimenting with new things. Some good friends of ours invited us to their family pool for a swim and boy did the kids love it. They haven't been swimming much this summer (in a real pool anyway). I was surprised that Dani climbed right up the slide and decided she wanted to go down. She has always been the one afraid to do things like this. After her attempt the other kids decided they might enjoy it too. I was also surprised that Taylor would try it after her near death experience earlier this year with slides. She still didn't like the water in her face so after a few times I couldn't get her to do it again for the camera. Dani also decided to brave putting her face in the water, so we were proud of her today. Sam was scared of nothing. After jumping right in several times he wasn't even affected by his mom having to run in and save him after having his face in the water for several seconds. You have to keep an eye on that one. Thanks to our friends for the invite and it was good to see you Sheri and Jen.
