The Great Escape

We've had season passes for the Great Escape the past few years, but with a tyrannical two year old and a new baby, we decided the logistics would make it too tricky this year. The girls were disappointed, but we've managed to keep busy and haven't really missed going. We were all pretty excited to find that Global Foundries Family Day was at the Great Escape this year so we could at least go once.

It was easily the most difficult day we've had there, as expected, but MiniM.E., LittleL.G. and SlimJim all had a tremendously fantastic time, so I'm super happy we got to go once this year and even happier we won't have to go again.













And no day long trip at the Great Escape is complete without ice cream from Martha's(that nobody ate- good thing Daddy didn't eat all his shaved ice!).

Swim: Take Two

Here we are at the end of a short first week of the second session of swimming. We skipped the first two leveling days and just had three days of swim this week. MiniM.E. is in a higher level this time, which is a challenge she is enjoying, and LittleL.G. feels thankful to have the same teacher this session as last. The playground is still one of the best parts of our morning.



It seems aside from swimming, there isn't a lot of time in our day for other activities. There's time for photos of this little guy, who is getting so big!

And we have been taking MiniM.E. to TaeKwonDo a couple evenings a week. This week the littles and I stopped at Congress Park to hang out for a while since it was so nice out.




And yesterday we made it up to Moreau Lake in the afternoon.

A Pool Weekend in NH

We are spending a long weekend here in NH before starting back with swim lessons on Wednesday. It is so nice to have a pool right in the backyard. 








We also took full advantage of the great stuff Gram and Grumpy have in their yard and the fun toys they have to play with.

Week Three of the Summer of Swim

We have a great group of friends swimming with us this summer. It's so nice for the kids to have friends to play with at the kiddie pool while each girl is taking swim lessons. 


 









In addition to having a great time playing at the pool and taking lessons, all the kids really enjoy our picnics at the playground- maybe even more than our time at the pool.






We will miss all our friends when we start the next session of swim next week.
