We all had fun on Sunday at my the house of my friend, Rhona. It was also her birthday so we celebrated with pizza, cupcakes, and cake! Here are some photos of all the kids having a blast. The twins had swim lessons all last week so we left the floaties at home. Lauren hung tight to her kickboard the whole time, and Emma did swim on her own a bunch between Paul and I and to the stairs. VERY scary without the reassurance of the floaties, let me tell you! Both girls fell off their kickboards at one point and went under. Both were able to get themselves up and get their heads out of the water, but it makes you think about how quickly something tragic could happen. Both times, Paul or I were right there to get them out and calm them down, and they were troopers and went right back in. With more swim lessons at the end of June, I am hoping for a floatie-free, safe summer!
(I had the same exact picture with Emma and Annabelle, can't find it now...)
