Our summer is half over already! June was a busy month. Swim team is now over but it was a great season. Rachel improved SO much in all of her strokes, became a much better breast stroke swimmer, learned to dive and to do flip-turns this year. We are so proud of her and all of her hardwork and dedication to it. Even though the practices and meets were very hot, I wish it wasn't over so soon so that she could continue on for a while! Here are pictures from throughout the season. (Note: I didn't take most of these swim team pictures... a friend in the neighborhood took tons of pictures at each meet and shared them with us.)
Jackson and Emma - his new buddy.
Having a great time!
Cutie.
He had to do what the girls were doing.
Last night was the swim banquet. This is part of the 7-8's age group - quite a few of them were on vacation this week.
Rachel won the Golden Seahawk award for her group - one girl and one boy in each age group get it for best attitude, cheering on their teammates, always being there, etc. So proud of her! Next year, Jackson will be able to swim on the team as well!
We spent Father's Day afternoon at the pool.
I tried to get some good pictures of the kids jumping in the water.
We have discovered a new treat place. It's called Bahama Bucks and this is their first location in Georgia. They have sno cones, shaved ice, smoothies, etc. So delicious!!!
I painted two more paintings recently. This one I did at my normal place and we hung it in the kitchen. I really like the colors.
And this one I did on my own at home. It's in our living room now.
Sunday at church they had a Celebrate America celebration which was really good. They had 200-300 service men and women come up when they were honored for their branches of the military. This is the kids afterwards about to play on the inflatables. They also had about 18 food trucks there for us to have lunch.
And they got to meet a minion. We can't wait for the Minion movie to come out!!
More adventures to come over the next month... School starts August 3rd...
