Funny faces

While we were waiting for Aaron to finish talking to friends after church, I took these pictures of Hannah.  She has such funny faces!

Aaron the Elder

Aaron was installed as a ruling elder at our church this past Sunday.  The ladies put together a strawberry and champagne reception for the two new elders.

Backyard pool, marshmallows and a campfire

Summer arrived in Texas a few weeks ago, so it was time to get out Hannah's pool.  She loved playing in the pool and the sprinkler.  She played with her balls and climbed in and out, in and out.

When she grew tired of the pool, Hannah walked over and said, "I need marshmallow.  And campfire." What?  Where did that come from?  Oh yeah- she had been reading Curious George Goes Camping earlier that day and they roast marshmallows.  So what does Hannah's wonderful father do?  He fulfills his daughter's wish!  Aaron got out some marshmallows, toothpicks and a lighter.  Hannah's reaction: she thought the experience was very fun but one sticky mess was enough for her.

Swim lessons 2012

Hannah and I are enjoying a Mommy & Me swim class this summer.  Last week we mostly just played in the pool, practiced kicks and scoops, and even jumped off the side of the pool- super fun!  Yesterday I had to dunk Hannah's head under the water- I even did it with her- but she was NOT a FAN!!  However, today she went off the diving board! 
Well, more like dropped off and caught immediately.  Hannah had so much fun that she did it again. 

The verdict: swimming and jumping- Yes!  Blowing bubbles and head wet- No!
