Fourth of July

This year we were invited to Tyler's grandparents' house on the lake for swimming and lunch. We were there for about 5 hours before we finally called it a day. Julia and Blake had a blast swimming. Chase was willing to sit on the steps next to the water ... that was it. He screamed when Grandma tried to bring him in the water ... he has never been impressed with the water.

Here is a photo of Julia swimming ... I took all of these from the dock so lots of photos using the zoom (that turned out awesome)! Unfortunately, I can't share most of them here due to other relatives being in them and not having their permission to share them.


and Blake ...

Here is Blake enjoying the tire swing:


After we started to get ready to go, Chase started to play football with Papa and Tyler ... he had an absolute BLAST:
