Backward Somersault

Since we got the pool we decided to take Nicoles swim vest off every once in awhile...well in turn she has taught herself how to swim!!! She is amazing...she can dive, swim from end to end under water. She do somersaults...and from this video this is her new trick...this video was her second time doing it. Seriously my 4 year old is a swimming prodigy! LOL!!!!!!!

Katie and Nicole Swimming!!!

Today we had Katie and Paula over for a little pool date!! We have not seen them in a couple of months with everything happening! It was so nice to see them. Nicole and Katie spent the morning playing in her room...dolls, barbies and ponies...then dress up time as princess' and then onto the pool!!! They were so cute, and Katie even took off her swim vest and swam!!!!!! Paula and I even got in on the fun!!!! No..no pics of us! :)

Happy 38th Birthday Momma!

I love you so much Momma.

4th of July

We went to the fireworks in Bellingham this fourth! They have such a wonderful set up. On the football field is where everyone sits, you bring blankets, chairs, and food. They have a huge stage set up and a band plays oldies until nighttime! So fun!

Our new pool!!!

Thats right i said...POOL!!!!!!! While we were away Corey got us a pool. His friends came and helped him out and put together for us! We couldnt be happier. We spent the whole weekend in it!!!!

Virginia trip

For two weeks Rick, Nicole and I headed to Virginia to help out Dad and Deb. Deb was going in for back surgery and Dad needed some everyday help. We tried our hardest to make things easier for them..and hopefully it helped even just a bit. They are to be moving here in a few months which will be so wonderful!!!!!!!
