Swimming and YW

We have taken the boys swimming a lot this summer with their cousins and here are a few pictures of each of the.  First we have Quentin sporting his goggles.  He has really mastered his swimming this year.
 Now we have Cyrus just finishing his cannon ball, one of his favorite things to do
Zayne is in his little boat.  He really enjoys the water.  Especially dropping things and watching everyone dive for them.
I also had the opportunity to go up to girls camp with our ward and spend the whole week with the girls. It was a lot of fun and work.  Here is the whole group just before we left the church.
Here are all of the girls under our rainbow that we just finished making.  Our theme was the Wizard of Oz.  The girls are sitting on the yellow brick road.
Here are the 4 brave leaders who stuck it out all week.
These are our neon stick figure dancers.  Our 4 YCL's this year dressed in black and hooked glow sticks to their bodies.  Then they put together a dance to a couple of songs and preformed for us.  It was really cool.  We will be doing this with all of our YW in a couple of weeks for an activity.
After camp we took the girls boating.  Yep that is me near the back of the water weeny.  The girls weren't going to let me get out of getting on that and getting wet.  I definitely got tipped a few times.
We have had a lot of fun this summer and  will miss the time we have been able to spend together.  However, I know the boys are more then excited to get back into school.  Cyrus starts preschool this year and is excited to meet his teacher.  I'm not sure what I will do with Zayne for the 2 and a half hours while Cyrus is gone, but we'll have fun.
Girls Camp was a blast and I would definitely do it again if given the opportunity.  I missed the boys and Justin and thought about them often, but I also kept really busy which made for a quick time apart.
