Our 4th of July long weekend was wonderful. On Friday, the 4th we visited my parents at their camping resort. Kaylee, Nate & Max all enjoyed swimming both at the beach and the pool. They especially enjoyed spending time with their cousins.
On Saturday, the 5th the kids enjoyed more swimming at our neighbors annual Independence Day Pool Party. Max especially enjoyed sitting on a floating chase lounge while Nate pulled him around the pool. That is, until he got a little too comfortable and tipped over the side and fell into the water. Nate acted very quickly to grab Max and swim him over to the edge of the pool where Derek & I were watching. Nate definitely has the instincts for lifeguarding! Not that Max was really in any danger-- he was wearing a fully accredited life vest, but we were still impressed with Nate's quick thinking.
Today Nate starting swimming (& hopefully diving) lessons. He already does pretty well but he wants to learn to swim "the right way" and he really wants to learn more diving tricks. Hopefully the diving class isn't full, since we didn't pre-register. (Update: the diving class was full. Bummer. They may offer it again in the fall so hopefully we'll get in then. Danger Boy did really like swimming class and was proud to report he's the only one in his class to dived head first off the diving board.) I'll also be updating with some pictures from the weekend- eventually.
