We Just Can't Get Enough

We just can't seem to get enough swimming in this summer.  Actually that is literally all we have done.  My kids swim every day in the canal and my family has taken up the redneck sport of bridge jumping.  The kids love to jump and swim and I love to stand in the shallow water to keep myself cool.  There is something for everyone as the babies chase minnows and throw rocks while the big kids jump and swim. 


My brother Hank is a total stud.  He is the best uncle around and is so good with all the kids.  He knows just how to get kids to try new things, and finally succeded at getting Kallie off that bridge for the first time.  Once was all it took, she has been a flying fish ever since.  Twin Bridges has seen a good amount of us this summer and I love how brave Kallie and Cole have been and how much confidence they have gained in the water.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Hank tried to pull out a few of his old tricks, apparently his toes aren't as strong as they used to be or maybe he just weighs more, but his attempt at hanging from his toes didn't go as well as planned!
 

My dad was paying the kids to do different tricks and jump from higher spots, my mom was having a heart attack at him dishing out all her cash!
 
 
 
 

We'll just chalk it up to another perfect summer evening.
