Last week we did "tie-dyed" t-shirts with our next door neighbors: The Syrjamakis'. Hailey, Olivia, and Taylor did them on their own and I thought they turned our great and we didn't ruin any other clothes in the process.
Now with all of our summer vacations completed and Mike busy with his fellowship we visited our local pool that is located just 1 mile east of our home. It has been a huge success with the kids and we purchased a membership for the rest of the summer. Hailey has really become an excellent swimmer daring to go down the big water slides, dive for rings, and jumping off of the board. Taylor is quite conservative in the water and the first time we went she laid right on her tummy expecting to float as she does so easily with her life-jacket only she sunk like a rock. Since then she has become a bit braver knowing that she can float with my hand under her and she dared to do the big water slides the other day while grandpa and grandma were here!
Carter prefers to wonder out on the cemented areas or perch himself on my hip while cruising after the girls.
This week Hailey and Olivia started their King's Kids Bible Camp. They leave every morning around 9am and return at 4pm. They were so excited about the bus ride. I can't wait to hear what they thought of the day.
