Happy 4th!

Happy 4th everybody! We're having a day full of swimming and projects. Derek is rennovating the pool area. He calls it "going island". It will be lots of fun when he is finished. We're counting the Tulsa baseball game as our fireworks. Guess what? Ashlynn started swimming underwater today! She usually does everything possible to keep her head above water but not anymore. Now she's fearless. She swam all the way across the pool underwater (she resurfaced occasionally to catch her breath). She does all kinds of crazy twists and jumps now too. We're so proud of her! Caleb and Maggie passed off some Cub Scout requirements for water rescues. They each got to practice being a drowning person-which I think they enjoyed more than being the rescuer. Love to all!

Congrats to all the swimmers! When do we get to see the pool projects?
Sounds like a great way to spend a family day. We are doing water balloons and swimming and eating.
