Our Little Fish

It's been blazing hot here, so of course we're spending time at Ko and Jeff's swimming as much as possible. It's nice to have a little slice of paradise just ten minutes away. The girls LOVE going there, and so do Brian and I. Again, thanks for having us over!

I know there are a lot of pictures in the post. I tried to pare it down, but they were all too cute not to post. :)


Trying to get them to look at the camera at the same time...impossible!
CHEESE!




Let's float!

TRYING TO FISH OFF THE DOCK -
Hayley - 0
Mommy - 1
Hilary - 4
Hayley, AnLi & Carli
The girls were eating SunChips on the side of the shore, and of course dropping bits and pieces, and then the fish came...and came and came. AnLi was sitting in the water and they were just surrounding her. They didn't scare her, but I sure didn't like being in the water with them.
AnLi's swimming buddy Hilary never gets a rest!
Kolene, Kiya, AnLi, Carli and I had just taken the boat out when we saw Hilary and Jeremy back at the house. AnLi was so excited! We had to turn the boat around instantly so that she could jump off the dock with her favorite swim pal. She thinks she's pretty hot stuff jumping off the dock and swimming out in the lake, climbing the ladder and doing it over and over again. And she never stops smiling!


Kolene, Kiya and AnLi
Get in, Kiya!
Carli was perfectly happy floating with Ko and NOT swimming with the fish Hilary and the girls


Daddy and Carli on the boat
Jeff was pulling us behind the boat. On the big raft are Hilary and Jeremy and their friends, and then AnLi joined about halfway around the lake. What you can't see (thankfully) are Ko and I in little rafts behind the big raft. AnLi thought it was pretty cool riding around the lake!

About three minutes after we left. :)
Right before I took this picture, Carli was literally trying to hold her eyelids open with her fingers. She knew food was on the way, and there was no way she was missing that, exhausted or not! :)

What a blessing to have such a fun place to spend time at and enjoy your summer. The pictures are adorable....I always have a hard time narrowing down which pictures to post, too....so I usually post most of them. lol!

I can NEVER get my two to look at the camera at the same time...and if I do-one of them will no doubt have a goofy expression. : )

Enjoy the rest of your week!!

Not sure Carli liked floating with AnLi pushing - the look on her face! Adorable pictures! Looks like some of your are a little red - ouch!
