Family stops by to enjoy the pool
someone handed these 2 loaded squirt bottles
"drive-by" water squirting
and of course splashing in the pool
some go head under after a running start...
not me, of course!
We all know how tired you get from swiming.
Jonas was on his way from his room, through the living room to our room after we thought he was already sleeping, but only made it as far as the living room, and fell asleep in Mom's chair.

Dancing
Anika now "finally" takes a dancing class
Her first Tap class - she could not wait to put those tap shoes on!
We also found a Baseball opportunity
T-ball. You gotta learn how to hit the ball
Everyone also has to learn how to catch and chase that ball

Summer Pool time
Best get a running start
for a big splash
Silly times in the pool
Now here is what happens when someone gets in trouble:
Daddy: "Why is Jonas crying"
Anika: "Fell in the pool all by himself. I was just standing there, I did not help him fall in"
Daddy: "Anika, it is not nice to push Jonas in the pool and then not tell the truth about how he got in there"
Anika: "Daddy, he would have fallen in the pool anyway, I only helped a little bit"
True.
And as you can tell, Jonas's feeling were hardly hurt, nothing a cracker couldn't fix.
"Mama, you still taking pictures of me??"
