Summer

We enjoyed an awesome June...weather wise anyway. But alas, summer is most definitely here now. But it was off to a nice start for the girls when our good friends the Jorgensons invited a bunch of us over for a little swim party.
And as it so happened, it was perfect timing. We had planned to go to San Diego the next day to visit family and to celebrate some belated birthdays and father's day for their grandpa. We had asked their uncle Mark to give them (well, mostly Emily) a swim lesson. So it was really great to get the girls comfortable in the pool again. Emily didn't really skip a beat and jumped right in...quite literally. She is very comfortable around the pool...as long as she has her arm floaties on. Which is the problem, she has reached her limit in learning how to swim and so the floaties need to come off so that she can learn to swim without them.
She still has a long way to go but she made great strides. So hopefully we will be able to get another lesson in this summer. Thanks again Mark!
