Summer Water Fun

We have had fun in the water this month and here are a few pictures of the events. Russ' orthodontic department had a BBQ at the lake where his director has a cottage. There was a clown (that Cole was mesmerized with) that did tricks, face painting, and balloon animals. After the clown left Cole and Russ changed into their swimming suits and headed for the lake. Cole jumped off the dock a bunch of times and once he was in the water he kept exclaiming, "I am swimming!" We couldn't get him out of the water - he was in the lake for an hour and a half. When we finally dragged him out his lips were blue and his whole body was a prune. He had so much fun. Garrett and I had fun watching and I was grateful I didn't have to get in the cold water!!

Cole jumping into the lake for the millionth time

Cole and Russ - cute boys!


This was the fist time we turned on the sprinkler in our own yard and it was one of the hottest days of the year. Cole got a kick out of it! Even Garrett and I ran through a few times to keep cool.


Here we are at the local pool. It was Garrett's first "official" time in the pool in his swimming gear and floatie. He loved the water - his legs were kicking like crazy! Cole is a fish and couldn't get enough of the water and loved having his dad there to swim with him. It was a fun day at the pool!
