The long days of summer require the coolness of a pool and the people you love the most in the world!

On their own, they placed towels on the ground and began practicing yoga.

Early in the swim season, splashing and hanging on to the sides. I placed a stipulation on these two. “Let me slowly start the process of teaching you to swim or you HAVE to go to swimming lessons given by ANOTHER teacher.” Each time we visited a pool they had to attempt holding their breath as well as doggie paddling in the shallow.

We even traveled to Charlotte, NC to play with Saxton and Synclair in their pool.

Jackson has built his swimming confidence enough to try water slides.

We are having the time of our life by the pools.
