Swim Lessons

What comes along with Summer but swim lessons of course.  This year both Wiggles and Monkey were on their own for lessons.  Mommy got to take a break from the water and just watch.  And after last year I'm so thankful for that.  Course this year they have the heater fixed so the kids were happy.  
Here's Monkey sitting in the water with his classmates waiting for his teacher Ms.Bianca (also his teacher last year) to give them directions. 
Here is Wiggles diving for rings and finding them. With her teacher Kayla.  Wiggles would have her teacher to herself for about 10mins each day the other two kids in her class were late.  That was great for us because Wiggles would get some extra one on one time with her teacher.  
Here's Monkey doing what he loves best.  Jumping into the water.  He master this last year and never gets tired of jumping in.  
After swim lessons. :) 

Visiting Baby Grant

One of our post school trips was up to meet Baby Grant.  My Cousin had her baby  and we were able to take a quick trip up to see  him one morning.  Wiggles was able to hold him for quite awhile and she loved every minute of it. 
Such a cute little guy.  Can't wait to hear more stories of things he's done and of future things. 

Zoo trip with cousins

Since school is out we've been able to have more time to visit with friends and family.  Last month we were able to go to the zoo with Nani, Auntie Ang, McKenna and Austin.  What fun we had too.  Wiggles did a good job helping Austin and tried to help out with McKenna too.  Even trying to sing a lullaby or two. 

The kids had so much fun showing their cousin the zoo.  We saw all the best animals here at our zoo.  Next time we will need to go up to them and have a tour of their zoo.  Thanks Austin, McKenna, Auntie Ang and Nani for coming to visit us and letting us show you our zoo.

Fair Time


This year we made it to the county fair.  We got some friends together and went. Some of our friend's kids are in  karate and they were having a demonstration.  SO we waited and went the day they performed. All the kids had fun as you can see....

The kids wanted to take a break on these foot things like at the zoo.  Thought cute photo op.
So Wiggles wanted to desperately see a pig at the fair and why not we are at the fair and every fair has pigs right? So here is the pig we found. Big fella! Unfortunately you couldn't pet the piggy.

This year Wiggles school entered some art work that she did and after much searching and running around we found it.
Here she is with her art work. The bottom bird is her's.  No one in her class won a ribbon sadly but they did have fun making them. :)
Last but not least; the reason we went to the fair this year.  The Karate demo. All three of our friends in one shot.  They did an awesome job.
