First Swim of the Season

So the day started typical of last year.
Hunter showing no fear of the water and hardly waiting for us to open the cover.

Mckinley was a little timid and took her time getting in.

and that's when things changed.

Hunter had a blast doing flips in the pool.




Mckinley was pretty daring. She started clinging on to people. Then she started kicking more and more. Finally she pointed to the slide and demanded to be put on it.

and she pushed herself off.

THEN she demanded to go down the slide. All the way from the top.

She wasn't waiting for anyone to help her.




She loved it, and did it again, and again, and again.

Toward the end of our trip, she figured out how to float on her own and was starting to figure out how to maneuver herself around.
We couldn't get Hunter to go down the slide, but he was crazy about jumping in.

Mckinley couldn't be outdone.

FINALLY, we got Hunter to go down the slide, but only with Daddy.

It was an awesome day! Even if it was cut short because of a thunder storm.
