Happy Birthday Brayden!!

Brayden turned 6 a week ago today on July 9. He had a great day. We gave him a set of golf clubs for his birthday. He loves them. Both him and Tyler are going to be good little golfers. Bryce took both of them to the driving range to hit a bucket last week. Bryce said Brayden needs a bit more practice before he gets to go on the course, but I'm sure it won't be long.

Swimming lessons & New pool

Today was the boys' first day at swim lessons. They take them each summer up in Brigham City at the Peak. They had a great time and did an awesome job. They are going to be good little swimmers, unlike their mother. I remember being traumatized once at swim lessons and so I never really learned to swim. Do you remember, mom?? Well anyways, me and Ellie just sat by the pool and roasted a bit in the sun.

I think next year I will get Ellie and me in a "mommy and me" class.

Well, after swimming at Steph's house last Sunday for Janet's birthday party, Bryce decided that we needed an above ground pool too. A "poor man pool" as Steph would say. It is 18 ft. across by 4 ft. deep. Bryce and his dad set it up this weekend. The boys and some of their cousins and friends have already had a blast in it. Bryce, Ellie and myself haven't gotten in just yet. The water temperature is about 84 degrees. I'm going to give it a few more days to cook in the hot sun. The boys will be able to practice their swim techniques in the pool. I think it will be a great investment for the family this summer.
