Last Pool Day

As you can see from all the pictures the kids had lots of fun. The water was great. It was a pretty day not really to hot but the water was warm. Just right for a warm day...not to cold. I think everyone stayed in the water. Tianna, Dallen and Brandon love the lazy river and that is usually where they stay. This trip they found the swimming pool. It is deeper and makes me nervous but Stephen and Ivy were giving them swim and float lessons there and they loved that too. Dallen is practicing what Stephen taught him about swimming. He did a good job. Here you can see him holding his breath and practicing his strokes.
Brandon practiced the holding his breath and the way to move his arms. I was so proud of them the they really picked it up fast. Ivy gave them tips from when she took swim lessons. She actually took lessons and could tell them how she learned and what she learned where Stephen learned by just jumping in!
Tianna being the great sister she is was helping Brandon while he was practicing holding his breath. She was teaching him to hold it a little longer..........by holding his head under the water for him! He didn't seem to mind though.
Stephen took time out to let Riley play basketball. Riley loves the water and will just jump right in. He isn't afraid at all! And it really started something cuz after this picture was taken Brandon just joined in with a group of boys and they all played for a while.
I think you could say that this day was a success. I always go away at the end of the day hoping that everyone had fun but today I think everyone did. No one really wanted to leave. But as Tianna pointed out....we need to get ready for school, it starts tomorrow...which is now today. So we will have to let these memories keep us through the winter til we can go back next summer!!
