Fun in the Water

Washington is not known for it's pools. In California, almost everyone has a pool or at very least has a friend with a pool. Here in Washington, we only have about 2 months that you would want to go swimming and therefore nobody has a pool.

Because of this swimming does not happen very often.

However, Justin's sister, Aunt Hannah lives in a condo complex with does have a pool. Better yet, it's a rather deserted pool!

We took the whole family over one day so the kids could get in a bit more swimming practice and fun.

Everly had never even been in a real pool and she actually did well. She spent more time out than in but it was a good first dip in the pool.

Logan is still quite adventurous as he was last year. Still wearing the water wings but making laps around the pool faster and faster.

Ransom has finally gotten more comfortable in the pool. Last year, he wouldn't leave the steps, even with the water wings on. This time, he was very slowly making his laps by way of doggy paddling.

Verity had her very first pool trip and just like in the bath, she absolutely loved it. She is definitely a water baby. We probably could have left her in there all day and she would have been quite happy.

But rather than explain it all, I think I'll just show you…


Here's Logan showing off his swimming skills.
