Lainee in Shades

I'm a bit behind getting my pictures downloaded from our 4th of July camping trip.  So, for now... enjoy this cute picture of Lainee.

We were running/walking down the road to get our mail.  She insisted on putting on her sunglasses just like her mama!

Swimming Lessons

Cooper and Carson both participated in swim lessons again this year. They learned a lot and had a great time.  We had some friends take lessons at the same time, so that was fun.

I wish the pool was a bit closer so we could do multiple sessions during the summer. I really want them to improve and progress more. They just started a swim team at the pool as well, but I really don't think I'm up for the 1 hour round trip drive every morning for 2 months of the summer. Oh the joys of country living. Of all the benefits of living outside of any kind of municipality, having your nearest pool 30 minutes away when you live in a desert is not one of them!
