Swimming Lessons 2011

Once again, we took swim lessons from the fabulous Mrs. Kay! BIG THANKS to Ninny and Dee for doing this for our kids every year. It helps big time when we are swimming in their pool at their house! =) Kay is amazing and I owe her my life for teaching both of my children how to SWIM! You heard me right! After this year of lessons, Nash is OFFICIALLY A SWIMMER! I even bought a new 'safety seal' floater this year not expecting him to 'get it' this year. But he is a FISHY! I don't know why I am suprised, Nash has NEVER been afraid of the water and has always LOVED it!

Below: The older three (and a random girl watching on the left) get ready to DIVE in the deep end for a race! Luke, Camp and Ben swam. In a race. The LENGTH OF THE POOL! I can't handle the grown-up-edness of it all.

 Camp strutting to the deep end to practice diving.

And there he goes! This guy can dive! After this day, we had a MAJOR talk about only diving when you have permission from an adult. Ninny and Dee's pool is NOT for diving!

 

Below, Dee and Doc. Need I say more? They came to watch all the waterbugs on the last day. =)

 The 'little boy group' was Eli, Nash and Cade. This picture cracks me up because it is sweet Cade pointing at Nash when Mrs. Kay asked whose turn it was! Ha! This was Cade's first year at swimming (he is two) and he did SO WELL!

 Nash getting ready to jump in! (Cade, Nash, Eli)

 Nash and Eli practicing in the deep end.

 He's NOT scared =)

 Sweet wet hugs for Ninny.

 All the cousins (except for Tate) at swimming lessons! Macy, Nash, Luke, Camp, Ben, Eli and Cade. All in all, when we have Tate there, it is 7 boys and 1 girl. Sweet, sweet May May!

My Heart

is walking around outside of my body in the form of two little boys.

And I must say - these boys are growing up way. too. fast. 

Camp's K4 End of the year party!

 Camp loved his teachers and his new friends! We are looking forward to Kindergarten!

 This was the T-shirt he made for 'car wash' day. The last week of school, the kids wash their teacher's cars! The kids LOVE it and the teachers get their cars clean! Well, at least their tires and the bottom half of their doors =)

More Baseball

Camp's team

 Batting cage!

 Look at that focus!

 Annnnnnnnnnnd he's safe!

We'll miss you Natalie!!!

New school Tea Party

Nash got to go visit his new school for a tea party! He loved it!!! He is so excited to be going to "Bubba's school"

Blessed to be a mother on mother's day...

Nash's end of the year party!

 Nash just finished his two year old preschool and he absolutely loved every minute! We were so blessed by his precious teachers this year and will miss them so much next year!!!

9 years and counting =)

I can't believe it's already been 9 years! So that means we have been together around 12 years. WOW!
Time flies when you're having fun!

Baseball 2011 (Coach Pitch)

 Camp is playing Coach-pitch baseball this year! He is the A's and is so proud of his uniform. He LOVES sports. He prefers playing first base and LOVES to HIT THE BALL! 

 Nash loves attending Bubba's games. He especially loves hanging with the grandparents at said games =)

 Nash always finds a way to get Lele to take him to the snack bar for a "Nack"!

 Sigh. This picture makes him look so grown up. That's it. I'm not letting him grow up anymore. There. I decided.
