Our Glacier Trip

Micaela and Taylor had such a great time with the Ewings and the Smalls ~ this was the first time vacationing with both and we had a BLAST! We went on hikes and saw a lot of animals. Micaela was pretty good on the hikes and walked quite a bit herself, and then rode on her daddys shoulders the rest of the time. Taylor liked the scenery and enjoyed being in the pack to take it all in.

Swim lessons - week one

I thought it was about time for Micaela to learn how to swim. We got there, and she was all excited. She got in with her class which includes two little girls her age. Micaela wouldn't let the teacher touch her at all - not hold hands- NOTHING. They played ring around the rosie and she insisted on doing it all by herself. Towards the end of the lesson the teacher took them in the deep end and was trying to get them to lay their heads on her shoulder and "take a nap". The other two girls did this with no problem...not Micaela...she was screaming and crying saying she wanted her mommy. That ended the lesson. The next day she was just fine sitting on the edge of the pool - and watching the other kids have fun in the pool. On the third day I was finally able to talk her into getting in and having fun - she didn't have to "learn" how to swim. She is SUCH A GIRL, and very stubborn.

Happy 4th to Everyone!

We hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday.
