Aquatic Family Fun

The family we have been walking with in the EARLY mornings is gone out of state. They said we could use their pool any time we wanted. Well, that was a no-brainer. My DH and the children have gone over many times after walking or in the afternoons. This was my first dip in the pool, however. My DH took this pic from pool-side. That's me in the blue innertube. My oldest son and 3rd daughter were working, so they did not join in the fun--this time.

Here's Elisabeth and I clowning around a bit. Although it looks like we're about to drown each other, we both could have just stood up!


Torpedos away! Isaac having fun. I am proud of the little nipper. He was very afraid of the water when we first arrived. I don't know how he did before as this was my first time in the water with him (not counting early bath days--it seemed I got as wet as him some times). By the time we left, he was going all the way under water and trying to "swim" from one side of the pool to the other. Much braver!

Off for another jam-packed day of duty and adventure.

You all look like you had a blast! My but you have a large family. I remember reading previously there were 10 in your household, but I guess it didn't sink in until I saw all of you (minus 2) together. What a happy family you have! Kudos to you! :o)
