Ozarks

We had such a great week at the Ozarks with the Hogan family. Lots of fun & memories made! A few little hiccups - mainly boat problems and a broken water heater but none that impacted our fun! Here are a few pictures, I took about 500 as the official family photographer, now just figure out how to share all of them with everyone else. We had fun with the new tube - Lincoln, Samantha & Charlee were the daredevils of the group - standing while riding. We were treated to pedicures by the kids - was very comical & fun. Look forward to 2013!

Swim lessons are over, boys are sad - Mama is happy - lessons good, 100+ heat, sitting outside for an hour and half BAD!!! Boys did great, Linc is officially swimming and doing somersaults in the water. Carter is very comfortable swimming and has a very strong American Crawl. Now hopefully next year we can do lessons earlier in the summer!

We've been to gym, swim & now home to play - Linc is building a house for Kitty - I guess she's on the front porch? And Carter has become obsessed with archery on the Wii (shhhhh....don't make a sound or it will be your fault if he makes a mistake!)

Official swim lessons...not the mommy kind!

Linc started swimming last week under mommy lessons but is improving this week with the real deal. Today they are swimming in the tub as it is too hot & miserable to consider going anywhere else!

Swimming the Summer Away

Our un-lady like Kitty friend

Maybe not the best picture but her posture was cracking me up yesterday!

Unfortunatly the Thunder splashpad is down in the heat of the summer, but we improvised by playing in the reflective pond at the Myraid Gardens today. Doesn't take much water to make the boys happy!
