Sweet summer at the pool.

While this summer feels like it's getting more normal, at least more normal than it was in the spring, it's still strange that things are different. Some of our favorite summer events are cancelled because of COVID, but that is also making the small things we are able to do seem even sweeter. We were excited for the pool to open up! We actually don't go to the pool super often, like not enough to make buying a pass worth it, but it's fun to have as an option as a special treat and something fun to do! We went twice this week and the girls loved it!

Once I took the girls by myself while Kley was golfing league, and then Kley was able to come with, which all four of us loved! So thankful that Kley is such a fun dad! (Also, yay for new stages- this is the first year I feel comfortable taking the girls to the pool by myself! When I take them by myself, they all wear life jackets, but when Kley is able to come they don't to practice their swimming more since we have more hands to help.)

All three went down the slide! Norah and Lucy loved it. Ellory needed some encouragement, but she did it and smiled, but didn't want to do it again. Norah and Lucy each went several times (on Kley's lap- definitely not ready to brave it solo yet). 

We truly do have so much to be thankful for. I am thankful for the activities we are getting to do, for time as a family, and that we are healthy. Hope you are all enjoying summer too!
