Hot!! Need water!

It's been about 100 degrees for the fourth day now. Ick. Humid and sticky. Wish I lived in an igloo! okay, not really. but right now it would be nice to visit one. Actually, I'm fine in the heat as long as I get a pool or lake to be in. And last night I did. We went to the open house at Eli and Emmett's day camp and got to use the pool there. It was wonderful.

I love their camp, and so do they. It has been such a good thing and finally Eli's swimming has turned the corner. He has gone from a kid who was unsure of and hesitant in the water, to a kid who is having fun playing in it, swimming underwater, diving for things, jumping in from the side, and doing different strokes. YEAH!!!! finally! so psyched!

Eli !!

Nice not to have to worry about a kid in the water, and to have him enjoy being in it, especially on hot days! We were all in the pool for about 1 1/2 hours before heading home, and rolling into bed. Today had to pack them off again in thin shirts and hoping they don't get too hot.
But again, I'm not worried as the camp is really good about keeping them in water, and drinking it too- even to the point of handing out water on the bus ride home! So nice to have this camp around!
