Swimmin'





A little bit of swimmin' fun at our little neighborhood "country club." The pool we belong to is called a country club, but really it's more of a housing community built around a golf course and a pool. I think the "club" has been there about 30yrs and then the houses came later. We joined the pool for the summer and have been going nearly every day. When the weather is 85F when you step outside at 7am you know it's a pool kinda day. We've made some new friends and the boys have such a good time - it was well worth the money we paid to join. Even little JW has a good time floating around in the baby pool. Sorry no photos of JW - it's kinda hard to watch him to make sure he's not drowning and take photos of him at the same time. I managed to snap these of JT while my MIL was with us one day.
JT tends to go back and forth between the baby pool and the big pool depending on what the "big boys" are doing. He however has to have his floties on at all times, especially, if he is playing in the big pool.
I remember going to the pool every day w/my parents and sister back when I was young and remember how much fun it was. My Dad loved to swim and dive and would spend many evenings after work or weekends at the pool with us tossing us high into the air or launching us like rockets out of the palms of his hands. He also taught us how to dive and do flips off the diving board as we got older. I am hoping this little bit of summer fun will turn into some amazing memories for our boys as well.
