Swimming

We went swimming with the Young Women in our ward yesterday, and it was so much fun! I was able to take Alexis and Elizabeth with me, and that made them feel extra cool to go with a bunch of teen girls....

We all loved the water slide and went down many, many times.
Alexis was feeling really brave and thought she could jump from the high board, but when she got to the top....
She decided to climb back down!
This is me going of the diving board.... I was going for a great photo, and went straight out and was trying to look like I was flying through the air.....
and then didn't really notice how much time I had and did a huge belly flop..... and she missed the picture.... all of that pain for nothing. When I came out of the water I could her everyone going OHHHHH..... I felt really cool.
I had my eyes open during my belly flop, and I have to say they stung for a little while, and my face was really red....
The girls got a snow cone, and they were able to put on their own flavoring.... so Alexis put on every single kind, and it was 99.9% syrup, and 1% snow.... she was in heaven.
Alexis did so well on the diving board
This is a cool picture I took of one of our Young women...


This is Elizabeth's favorite Babysitters in the world. They are such sweet girls, and my girls all just love them.


Elizabeth is usually not to brave in the water, but she decided she didn't want to wear a floaty, and she was going under the water and opening her eye's and swimming like a little mermaid....
This is one of my new swim suits I thought I would show of, because I think it is so cute.... I got it from Angie Johnson... she sells them now (modbe)
It was so funny to go to a swim party and see her there.
