2013 Week 34


Enjoying the last week of summer vacation.  School is coming up on us quickly.

Kaitlyn started dance class Monday.  She was very happy to be back in class.  Me, I'm not sure I'm happy she's having fun and I love that she loves dance, but 7:30PM dance classes on Monday nights - it's a little rough week after week.
 Final swimming lesson on Tuesday - Thanks Miss Danette!  The kids learned a lot over the last few weeks.  Kaitlyn can now do all of the major swimming strokes (and is already better than me at the crawl stroke) and is quite a good swimmer.  Tyler has moved past his doggy paddle (yay) and gets around the pool better than ever.


His favorite part of swimming lessons - sinking the Titanic
 

We've also tried to spend quite a bit of time just hanging out at the pool with friends as much as we can this week.  It's been kind of rainy and colder (not complaining about the temps - I love when it's in the 70s), thus some time reading at the pool.  Kaitlyn is really into the Harry Potter series right now.  She's on the 5th book after starting the series only a month ago.

Just for fun :)
 Saturday we took the kids to an orchard (something we've been meaning to do for a few weeks but kept having to postpone).  We had a lot of fun picking peaches, apples, and grapes.
