We opened this discussion to the girls by asking them what were some of their favorite things about last year. And one thing they agreed upon (the agreeing stuff is getting harder and harder these days) is spending the summer at our community pool. If anyone is ever trying to get a hold of me during the months of June, July, or August they should first check at the pool. We are very blessed to have a community pool that is honestly right in our backyard. We grab our towels off the back deck and walk a little over a hundred yards and are greeted with the cool refreshing waters. Hey, with 90 degree heat the only way you can be outside is if you are in the water.
Needless to say, the girls are little fish. So much of my childhood summers revolves around swimming I am happy that my girls will be able to say the same. Rose has been on the swim team for the last two years and just loves to swim. Lily really became brave this year with her swimming. This summer she says she might try the swim team... well only if her friend Ada Grace joins she has informed me.
So our summer pool trips are honestly a highlight to everyone in this family... it is such an inexpensive way to have quality family time.
