Swim Lessons

We've really been enjoying swimming lessons this week.  We had a picnic before we started yesterday adn the kids had fun sliding down the hill.

Every child has improved tremendously in just a week!

Ethan's Birthday Party and a Balloon Fight

Ryan's friend, Ethan had a family BBQ for his birthday party and I had to take some pictures of the dad versus kid water balloon fight.

Max is in the Double Digits!!!

We have a ten year old!!!  He is a joy to have.  He has his father's sense of humor and is a huge help his brothers and sisters.  We enjoyed celebrating his big day!

Danielle was baby-sitting Jarom so they came over too.

10 Candles!

He wanted to do a scavenger hunt for his presents!

And then he wanted to go swimming so we did!

Such a fun, busy day that Max opted not to eat his cake that night so I let them have it for breakfast the next day.  For the win!
