Summer has been full of swimming. Every weekend we try to go to the neighborhood pool at least one day. It is different this year, because we don't play in the "baby" pool at all. And both kids can swim by themselves in the shallow end without floaties. It has been fun! They love to play with diving sticks and rings and to use their noodles to shoot water at each other.
Last week we took a trip to Bastrop, Texas, near Austin. We went to the Dino Park there and then canoeing on Lake Bastrop. We also went swimming in McKinney Falls state park. They both jumped right in and swam with the fish and the turtles. The water was nice and cool and the sound of the waterfall was soothing.
