Time in Norwich

Scott was working in Belleville again at the end of last week and the boys and I headed to my mom and dad's to enjoy the air conditioning, pool and Nostalgia Days. The weather was awesome and we spent lots of time in the pool, which was great.

Jacob tries out a bouncer for the first time.

Logan, the veteran bouncer.

Whee! This is fun!

Logan was waiting for Jacob to wake up before we went in the pool. So he was practicing his basketball skills. I guess he got tired of standing so he pulled his little chair right up to the hoop and took his shots from sitting down.

This year, the boys participated in the Annual Fishing Derby. A first time out fishing for them (and Scott). We didn't catch anything but since we prepped Logan ahead of time that he might not get a fish, he wasn't too disappointed. Besides he did get a hotdog and a freezie!

The three fishermen, waiting for a bite.

Logan tries out fishing.

Jacob too.

He didn't really get the part that you have to just stand and wait around but it made for a cute picture.

Scott fishes too.

Moving away from fishing and onto giant freezies!

Yum!

Mom and dad had plans that afternoon and evening but we stayed at their place until after supper to continue to enjoy the pool and air conditioning before heading home.

Relaxing poolside while the kiddos napped.

Scott couldn't seem to relax so decided to fish stuff out of the pool...

That's not right...

Happy guy!

Jacob didn't "swim" much. But he loved jumping in and climbing out...over and over and over again!

Get ready...

Mid jump...

Into Daddy's arms.

With the help of his Puddle Jumper, Logan was a super swimmer.

All the boys playing together.
