swim, swam, swum

We have been having some fun pool days.  The kids love to try to catch the football while jumping off the diving board.  Watch out for Hayden, he throws HARD!

Gary had three balls flying at him at once.  It's hard to see, but they're cruising his way.  The neighbor next door has become a fun friend and so he was in on the football fun!

Gary was showing off his diving skills and so I decided to try to dive also.  I haven't tried diving in years.  

I was laughing so hard when I saw these pictures Gary snapped of me while driving.  I look like I know what I'm doing. LOL!  I'm not even that great of a swimmer, but my dive isn't half bad. 

Layla has been a great swimmer for the past 2-3 years.  She's confident and splashes around and I don't worry about her too much.  Hayden on the other hand acted like he could barely swim the first few times he got in the pool this season.  Gary joined him in the pool one time and showed him a few things and now he's a wild man.  He jumps off the diving board like a pro and swims to the side of the pool with confidence.  He's doing great too.  I have two little fish that both love the water.

 It's crazy how my days at the pool have changed.  I may have to buy some magazines to browse through while I sit and watch the kids.  The pool does have life guards, but I still like to keep an eye on my little swimmers, so I'm not sure if I could actually try to read a book.  It's early in the summer and I'm excited about all our fun days to come!
