Last Lesson

Tonight, the kids had their last swim lesson of the season.  Reagan has really transformed into a swimmer and Cooper has made great strides.  Hopefully, they will be able to take more lessons in the fall/winter so they won't forget everything they've learned!

 she wouldn't put her face in the water at the beginning of the summer

 Cooper can put his face in the water too!

PJs, Chicken, & Swimming

Tonight at our local Chick-Fil-A, if you wore your pajamas ~ you got FREE FOOD.  So, Beth and I took our kids to eat and play before swim!

 the highlight of the night is always ice cream...on a cone

 Reagan LOVES ice cream

 After finishing our dinner, we headed to swim practice

 he doesn't like it, but he's getting better at putting his head under water

 LOVE this picture!

 time for the backstroke



Good Night for a Swim

Reagan and Cooper are getting great use of their swim suits/trunks this year ~ swim lessons 2 nights per week, and a pool day for Reagan and a water day for Cooper each week, plus random swim parties...swim lessons are paying off too!

Celebration Swim

In honor of Reagan pulling her 5th tooth yesterday, we celebrated tonight at Rita's and then went for a swim.

Good Friends

I got a call this morning from Beth asking if Reagan, Cooper and I would like to join her, Anah & Serah for dinner at Chick Fil A before swim lessons (Anah and Serah are on the swim team and have practice at the same time Reagan and Cooper have lessons).  Of course we would love to join them!  We ate dinner and the kids had the best time playing with the girls (they make fabulous sitters!)



Eating their ice cream treat

No pictures from swim practice tonight ~ Beth and I were too busy talking!

Sweet Surprise

Today, I had to fly to Philadelphia for a meeting.  This meant that Greg had to play mom and dad for the day.  He took the kids to two of their favorite places ~ Old McDonald's for dinner and Rita's for dessert!  Then on to swim practice.  I had asked Greg to take pictures for me, but he rolled his eyes like I was a crazy woman.  But to my surprise when I got home there were pictures, and videos, and a "Welcome Home" sign!!


It's good to be back home (even if I was gone for only 15 hours!)
