We spend most of our evenings here in the pool together. It cools us down and relaxes us. Or maybe just Joel and I, Phoebe and Sam seem to go crazy. With Sam taking lesson, its his turn to show us what he's got. And we've been impressed.
We went camping as well. Of course Sam loved it. Anything involving wildness is right up his alley. We learned that the four of us don't belong in a two person pup tent, smores are better with Traders Joe's chocolate, and old fashioned grahams, and you should never leave large sharp pocket knives unattended in the tent unless you want curious george to find it and slash you air mattress repeatedly. Also never camp in the middle of the summer unless you enjoy being mosquito meal.
Thank you for the update. You should get oa video of Sammy swimming, Uncle Nate really wants to see that. I like Phoebe's face in the picture, it looks like how I feel in water that is too deep. Handwashing....hmmmm....
