Week in Review...

The second week of summer started our swim team fun! After much coaxing and convincing and possibly bribing Haley decided to sign up for swim team this year as well as Jr. Lifeguard! She was so excited! not!! haha! We even convinced her that it would be awesome for her to ride her bike, since the pool is only about a mile away and her swim team starts at 7 a.m! Well, our neighbors are also doing swim team and heard that she was biking, so they said they would scooter down with her. So, she decided to just grab her scooter as well, instead of bike. Everything was going great until they were leaving from swim team to come home and Haley tripped with her scooter and it went zinging around and hit her hard on her ankle. She said it hurt really bad, but she just kept riding. She mentioned that it hurt when she got home, but I didn't think it was a big deal. Well.....by about 7p.m. that same night, she couldn't put any weight on it and she was crying when Rick was touching her foot and testing it out. So we took her to Urgent Care and it turns out that she sprained her ankle pretty bad! Poor girl! I thought to myself, "oh no! There goes her whole summer plans of swim team and jr. lifeguarding and being out of the house!"Well, luckily after a week of resting she is back at swim team and jr. lifeguarding, hallelujah!

Haley's been wearing an ankle brace and so maybe Abby thought it was the newest fashion trend?

Along with swim team comes swim goggles! Abby had to join in on the fun!

Jacob got 3rd place at his first meet, freestyle event!

Ashlyn got 5th place! She's a very strong and fast swimmer and very competitive!

We decided to take the kids out to Bahama Bucks since we had a BOGO free coupon! We love that place, this was Abby's first time!

Ashlyn and Jacob were there too...:)

Oh and us too!

Jacob likes taking selfies....

Rick and I took a date night out to Cafe Rio, we love their food! Luckily we had another BOGO free coupon!

Then we went to a wedding reception and they did the coolest thing!! As soon as you entered the church they had the professional photographer take each familys picture with an Instax camera, which is a the newest kind of polaroid camera, then they taped the picture onto a scrapbook page and we got to sign it! Such a cute idea! The kids were amazed when she pulled the picture out of the camera and then watched as it developed!

It was a busy, but good week. The kids are fully immersed in swim team, summer reading program and trying to stay busy at home with chores and not too much t.v. Happy Summertime!
