It's Summer Time


The best way to spend the summers in Arizona is in the water!! We have already had a couple of 100 degree days and even a 110 degree day! The jet skiing has been on the lake two times and we have been swimming at least 4 times. Tyler can swim without floaties and is getting more confident every day. Jared still uses floaties but I think that he would do fine without them if he was confident in himself. Fred just taught Jared how to dive and he does a great job... only 50 percent of the dives turn into belly flops! Nathan is part child and part fish! He loves the water and does not get out of the water until we are leaving. We have to keep our eye on him because he decides that he doesn't need his floaties and jumps right in the pool. He has complete confidence that he can swim to us and we will be there to help if it is needed. He loves the water and does not get out of the water until we are leaving. By the time we get him to the car his little fingers and toes look like raisins! Derrick enjoys splashing in the water and reaching for all of his brothers pool toys, even though he is just under 6 months old. We have a feeling that he won't have any problem keeping up with his older brothers once he's mobile! Most of the pictures that will be posted this summer will probably involve activities around or in the water. We hope you all have as much fun keeping cool as we do!
