Swimming Lessons

The following are pictures from swimming lessons at the beginning of June. We did swimming lessons at the gym I go to, and some of our friends joined us. It worked out really well so that I could drop the kids off at the gym nursery & do a step aerobics or weight lifting class. Then I'd pick them up and take Elaina out to her lessons and Erin would play in the little pool. Afterward we'd all swim for about an hour just for fun. It took up the whole morning, but is a nice way to pass the time in the summer here :)

Yay for swimming lessons!

Love these new swimsuits that Grandma sent for them

Elaina and Erin and their friend Anabelle, who also did lessons with Elaina

Love that shot of Elaina going off the diving board

Kayakiing

We found a spot to go kayaking at The Woodlands (about an hour from here) a few weeks ago. Mike's new hobby is geocaching, and there was one located at Lake Woodlands, but you had to kayak to get there. So we rented 2 tandem kayaks for a couple hours. It was so much fun, and something that I'd love to do again with the family.

We found the geocache! It was hiding inside the dragon's mouth

(Erin was scared of the dragon's tongue, as you can tell)

Splash Pad Fun

I'm not really sure why we have so many more pictures of Elaina...she must have just been more camera friendly that day... I love water pictures in the summertime! Summer makes me happy :)
