Summer Fun

Continuing to enjoy our lazy days of summer, the kids and I had a full day of activities today.  We started by bowling in the morning and finished with a swim in the pool.

Great form

 watching his ball roll down the lane

 she had so much fun today

 Cooper looks like he's running with a basketball instead of a bowling ball!

 sibling shot

 doesn't it look like he's about to dribble the ball?

 Cooper was the ball distributor today

 scores for game one

 after lunch and a quick cartoon, it was on to the pool

 she looks like a professional with her swim cap on!

Pool Day

What better time to be "retired" than in the summer.  The kids and I are taking full advantage of the few weeks of summer we have left (it doesn't hurt that our friends' house where we're staying has a pool!)

jumping in!

 Cooper always has a smile on his face

 for some reason, they spent most of their time playing in the hot tub

 Cooper practiced his swimming with his face in the water

 underwater babies

 backstroke

 it was hard work getting this picture!

Day at the Lake

We spent a lazy day at Gigi & Bubba's house today.  Cooper went to work with Bubba early in the morning. Greg, Reagan and I came to visit the shop later in the day.

Cooper's work includes test driving mowers

 Reagan tests the comfort of the seats

 Reagan was also the greeter for the day

 Cooper wanted to show Greg how the lawnmowers worked

 two thumbs up!

 Reagan bored rather quickly of the work and went and sat in the van!

a boy's work is never done ~ he cleaned out logs from the lake

 Reagan came down to the lake to supervise

 she really wanted to ride on the boat!

 Finally, a boat ride.  No swimming today as a storm was nearing, but we did get to spend a little time on the lake

 Cooper waved at the passing boaters

 After dinner and ice cream, Cooper rode his 4-wheeler
