Summer Fun

Summer is a great time to be kids. We went up the canyon with the furners, Larsens, and Gunns for family home evening in August. The kids had fun running around and playing in the canyon. Logan and Aaron played swords with sticks. Aren't boys allways turning everything into a weapon?
Stephen and Geoffrey are playing on a cell phone.
Aaron, Logan, Nina, and Jason had lots of fun inventing their own games.
We also had fun playing in the swimming pool this summer. The older kids got to have swimming lessons and the little kids enjoyed playing in the water. Faith probably went to the pool more than any of the others. She likes being old enough to go with her freinds and not have to wait on a grown up to take her.
Kiersten was a bit shy of the water for a while, but got comfortable enough to start jumping off the edge, as long as mom held her hands. Audrey and Aaron loved jumping off the edge. Aaron is practicing swimming so he can get good enough to jump off a diving board.

Logan is learning to swim better this summer. It is fun to have a waterproof camera.
Audrey loves this little water slide. She couldn't get enough of it.
Unfortunately, I do not get enough pictures of the older kids, because they are too busy to play to hang around for a picture, and I have to stay with the little kids.
