Swim Reunion

On July 6 we were invited by the mom of one of our swim buddies Grady to the Valley Fair Splashpad. Having moved away from West Valley and only go there to visit my in-laws I rarely go any where else in West Valley.  But the city has really built up things around the outside of the mall.  Carson really wasn't sure what to think of the randomly shooting spurts of water and X didn't know what to think either.  I chose to leave out the pictures of  X who stripped down to nothing but his swim diaper, and was cohersed to leave even that on. All in all we had a good time, Xavier finally decided to get dressed to his mom's relief, and Carson got out and enjoyed playing on the stairs.

Summer swim lessons

This summer Erin and X, Carson, and me and my mom who filled in when either mom needed her participated in swim lessons for the boys.  This is the second summer for X but the first for Carson and it was definitely a fun two weeks.  Carson wasn't as brave as I thought he would be though, on the last day the kids got to play on the big slide and X rode the slide with a teacher at least 10 times!

 Have to get Carson back into a pool soon!
