Welcome to summer!

Our neighboorhood pool opening is one of many signs that summer is here.  We had plans of waiting a few days and letting the water get warmer, but it's been so nice outside, we decided to give it a whirl.

Karsten wanted to know what the teacher was going to teach him today at the pool.  When we explained that swim lessons were over and we were just going swimming, I think he was temporarily perplexed.  Then he discovered that Liam and I were getting in the water with them, and he was all for this 'new' adventure.  Guess he doesn't remember all the fun we had at the pool last summer.

Sporting his water wings and shades (at an interesting angle).  He wasn't happy about having sunscreen applied, but oh well, he bounced back.


Proof that I got in the pool.  Neither Karsten or Liam wanted to look up to have their picture taken.


Liam was a big fan of the plastic raft (aka the yellow duck).  He would kick his legs happily and let us guide him all around the pool.


Just chillin'


We'll be back soon for another trip to the pool - hopefully the water will be a tad warmer!  It took our breath away as we got in it!
