Little swimmers

Just like we did with Kirby, we decided to do the ISR swim lessons with Roe.
We just finished week 3 and, even though Roe still Screams his head off the entire time, he is doing just AWESOME!
Day 1
Week 2...... totally floating on his own.
Mrs. Joy, the instructor said that he should be done before the expected 6 weeks, i sure hope so!

Kirby is on the "Jr River Rat's" swim team at TQ.
Week one
Kirby looks a little un-sure of this.

Last Friday at the first big swim meet.
Kirby with his FIRST PLACE RIBBON!
(ok, they all got first place, but i'm still a very proud mama)

Back stroke
Two goofy river rats

I'm not a real competitive person, so you can guess my shock when Kirby was CHALLENGED by another mom saying that her son was planning on beating Kirby in the swim meet.

What?!?!?!

Richard.... you better watch yr back boy! Kirby is gonna show you what's up next week!

haha

A Family Weekend

Last weekend we had a dear friend in town from California. She and her husband were staying at the beach, so we decided to take a little mini vacation out to Sawgrass for a long weekend.
Fun in the pool
Alligator in the lake

Memorial Day Weekend

We had a very busy Memorial Day weekend this year.
It all started Thursday with a "Ladies Lunch" to celebrate a beautiful friend.
Mandy is heading to San Francisco, so a few of us girls got together for a going away lunch.
It was a very fun morning with some very dear old friends.
Friday Kirby and Emsley hosted an End of the Year Picnic at Victory Lake.
Kirby, Lucas, and Wallace

Saturday we got to go to the Landing and watch Uncle Reid and his band preform as a part of The Jacksonville Jazz Festival

And Sunday, Baby Margaret was dedicated at Access Church.
Aunt Liz, Dick and Megan ware all in town so it was a very special occasion.
