cRazy people

We stayed at two lovely homes while in San Diego. The first week some dear friends

housed us and the second week some other dear friends let us use there house while they were away. 

Both places had easy access to a swimming pool (the first had a community pool directly behind it,

and the second in the back yard). So needless to say, the children had PLENTY of swim time. 

The first morning there, I was abruptly awakened with the words.... "the kids are in the pool!"

I went into a momentary panic thinking, "Whitney can't swim and Abby has a cast on her arm."

All was good though, and sure enough they were swimming though the temp was only about 65! 

(Both of the pools were thankfully heated...)

By the end of our trip, Whitney was indeed swimming alone, and Abby had mastered swimming

with her cast on.... which was quite the site. However, I regret to say I did not get a picture of her learned skill. 

Not sure how that happened:( 

She would put on a swim vest, along with her plastic arm cover, and go down the big slide.....

all with her arm raised above her head. (I do think the pastor got some video, thankfully!!)

For the most part, she kept it pretty dry! I was impressed. 

The pictures below were taken at the second home we stayed in. 

We affectionately called this place of entertainment "Barrie-land!" 

Can you tell it was wonderful?? 

 

 

 

Thank you Bob and Darlynn & Gary and Cheryl for providing such WONDERFUL places
for us to stay. Your hospitality made our trip. 
We will forever be grateful for these memories and hope that 
one day we can return the favor!! 
Many, many blessings to you and your dear families this summer. 
We love you!
