Swimming... what else?

When you live in a desert and it is summer you don’t have many options as far as things to do outside, so spending the day in the pool becomes a daily ritual. You would think that the kids would get bored of swimming practically everyday, but they don’t. And I happily take them knowing that after they swim for a few hours they will be worn out and nap or relax the rest of the day. Making the day more peaceful in the end for me.

This week a few friends and family joined us.

Jared, Mindie, Conner, Courtnie, and Blake joined us a few times, along with Austin

Kirk, Jane and Bryson

and Michael.

We also went swimming over at the Mohlers house with the Terry’s, after all the kids hung out together in Worthen Circle with Briton, Aspen & Jaden in charge while we went to dinner with Joe and Leslie.




Jaden has been working really hard on diving this week and has gotten the hang of it. He has also been trying to jump SUPER HIGH off the diving board

Macy and Cloey have braved the diving board and decided that it IS way FUN

and Troy has mastered a front flip off the edge of the pool (Picture of that to come)



what a hard life they have.

LOVE the pictures! It is so weird to see Bryson in them. It's pretty sad that he gets to see you guys more than we do! :0)

I love soo many pictures! Looks like fun. Is that Jane in the picture with Kirk? I have never seen her so I'm just being curious.

I knew Bryson and Jess looked alike, but they even have the same TAN LINES!? Too funny. Love the pics of the kids laying out. Doing that all day for a week would definitely make my "top 10 life sweeter" list!
