Week full of Fun!!

I know, I know....I'm slacking!!!!  I haven't posted pictures in a while!!  Here you go......pictures of the kids, because I know that's all you care about!!!  :)  Garrett was eating ice cream and Haylee (my little climber) climbed up in his chair with him just said "peeese, peeeese"!! 

Last week Garrett finished his second set of swimming lessons.  He's becoming quite the little swimmer!!  On the last day of swim lessons they let the kids slide down the slide which Garrett chickened out doing last time around.  The night before I asked Garrett if he was going to go down the slide and he said, "NOPE!!!"  I told him if he did I'd take him to the toy store and let him pick out something.  His response, "I PROMISE I'll do it!!  I'm NOT lying!!  I'll slide down the slide!!!"
When it was his turn he stood up there, looked down the slide and turned around to go down the stairs.  I was standing in the observation deck and before he went down the stairs he turned around and looked at me.  I shugged my shoulders and he quickly turned around and dove on his stomach down the slide!!!  It threw every one off guard!! 
This little girl was scared to jump in by herself and Garrett said, "You can do it!!!  I have faith in you and she (the instructor) won't let anything happen to you....I'm not lying" (the I'm not lying is his new phrase!!)
Garrett's wild man jump!!!
Haylee during swim lessons!!

A trip to the zoo park after swim lessons

We started Garrett in taekwondo a few weeks ago and he LOVES it!!  It seems to be doing him really good too...plus it's a good way to expend energy!!!  :)
Again Haylee waiting on brother!!!  I promise baby girl, you'll get your turn....someday!!!

Our life group met at a park today and had an ice cream social with several other life groups.  Haylee I think had the best day of her life!!  We have gone to parks before but she just kinda stands there and looks around, today she was totally into it!!! 
"What should I do? I'm not sure what this place is.  So many kids screaming and laughing, kids running around, black rubber on chains going back and forth almost hitting me, dogs running around.....why does my mom keep bringing me here?" 
"This is fun......"
"Mom, you are so weird, what is this thing?"
".....oh my"
"That was AWESOME!!!  I like this place!!!"
"I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!!"

(I promise that's not the ONLY shirt Haylee has...it just so happened that everytime I took pictures she was wearing it...plus some of those activities were all in one day (swim lessons and zoo trip and taekwondo and park :)
