day with friends...

A few weeks ago (yes, I know I am WAY behind on posting) we had a BBQ with some old friends.  They invited us to their house and the kids got to go swimming and jumped on their giant trampoline.

My kids had so much fun!  They ask me about three times a week when we are going back to their house to play.

The daddies were nice enough to get in and swim with the kids.  The mommies stayed out of the pool and did some catching up.

My kids had never jumped off of a diving board before.  Landon isn't confident enough in his swimming abilities so he didn't really want to jump.  Ashlyn was a little freaked out at first and made Chris stay under the diving board, just in case.

Vanessa and Courtney showed her how it's done...

(I love how their dog, Murphy, kept a watchful eye on the kids as they swam)IMG_0246
Ashlyn got a little more confident as the day went on...IMG_0273
By the end of the day she was diving in all by herself!


























Landon kept himself busy diving for rings and floating around the pool...IMG_0267IMG_0253 
Is she not the cutest?! IMG_0237
Vanessa showed Ashlyn and Landon how to spray water out of water noodles and they had fun shooting each other

Landon like the foam water squirter...

Courtney did a little spraying of her own...IMG_0213IMG_0212
and since he was already wet, Murphy went for a little swim of his own...IMG_0241

It was a great day with even greater friends.IMG_0254

Ashlyn was jumping and diving off Nettie's board like she was a pro. Landon though acted as if he couldn't swim at Nettie's but he was swimming at the lodge like he'd been doing it for years.
