Fishies...Swimming like them AND Catching them!

In May, Carson and Alden took swimming lessons with their cousins Elsie Anne and Thatcher. Aunt Julz allowed us to use their lovely pool and Coach Malcolm agreed to take on our group! 

They picked out their pink goggles and they were ready to start!

Carson - all smiles after the first few days of tears!

Alden - swimming like a fish!

Alden's jumping into Coach Malcolm

Carson's powwow with Coach.
Each time Malcolm said "think about using your arms, or looking a the bottom, or whatever" Carson would point to his head (as if reminding himself to use his head) - so funny!

Patient boys watching their cousins and waiting their turn

Our proud swim "graduates" and their mommas after 2 weeks of lessons!
 After swim lessons were over, we headed to the beach for a weekend of fun! Papa and Daddy took the boys fishing one afternoon....
Anxiously anticipating their first fishing experience on the boat ride out!


Carson very proud of his Lightnin' McQueen fishing pole

I love Alden's tongue out in utter concentration!

Alden's first fish!

Carson's first fish!


And Papa getting in on the fun - his first fish!.......of the day :-)
