"You are not here to live a mediocre to average life; you are here to live an amazing life, a miraculous life. If it weren't for your challenges, there would be no miracles. You must do that which seems impossible, for it is only in the impossible that miracles are had." - author unknown, but very respected

Swimming "for fun" as the kids call it..... since swimming lessons aren't "for fun" :) HA! And Nate's sunset.

On Monday, as planned (thank you very much, I did actually plan something!) we went swimming!  We killed the hour and a half after lessons and then went back to the pool to swim.  We were a little early so we got a really great spot, took a picture :) and then just played our hearts out for 3 hours!  It was a good thing Sarah showed up, it would have been a lot more work for me and probably not as fun for the girls if she hadn't been there to take them on the slide and stuff.  She's such a fun Aunt!  Erika had a pretty good time.  She got fussy halfway through, ate, took a nap in the stroller, and then played some more.  It was a pretty fun time.  I think we might do it again sometime.... probably not real soon :) but definitely again.  Possibly with Nate :)  I like doing the things that the kids think of though, and this one was their idea.  They had been eyeballing the cute little wading pool for.... well.... ever since we moved here!  And wishing they could swim in it.  It's funny that they prefer the indoor pool afterall though :) Good times. 

Nate took Erika out with him to look at the sunset and get pictures, and this is the funny one he got of her :)  He says that the stick wasn't actually up her nose, it was just near it, but still!  Funny stuff!
