Memorial Day 2012

We spent Memorial Day with our Friends the Ostermiller's celebrating Chad's birthday.
We swam, ate hot dogs and brats, savored shaved ice, and enjoyed being with friends.
It was a fabulous day!
Lily ate her first Oreo and loved it, of course. 

 Arabella thought she was invincible with this ring on until she had it off and slipped off the stair in the hot tub and went under.  I could not get up over the wall from the pool (I was standing right about where that dip in the wall is).  Peter ran from the other side of the pool and jumped in.  She was a little more timid after that.  Scared us all nearly to death.
 Lily did not know what to think at first but then she loved it and wanted to be in the water splashing with everyone else. 

Jon was great! He even swam with his face in the water. 
Peter and I signed all three kids up for swimming lessons that night.  It was easier to do after we had an idea of what level they were up.  Joey gets so anxious that he may never swim with his face in the water but I know he won't drown.
I am  looking forward to a lot more days of fun in the sun and water this summer!
