The Little Seahorse

So I promised more pics of our trip, and here they are, hoping to illustrate just how hot it has been!! We have been spending as much time in the water as possible this summer, also because we discovered Adelyn absolutely loves it. She never wants to get out.

This first one is actually the week before our trip and was Adelyn's very first time swimming. We were pretty close to heat stroke in our record breaking temps, so we just headed to the lake down the street from our house and took a dip to save our sanity.



Then we were on to the Tri-Cities for more hot weather. In looking for ways to keep busy while Aaron was working there, we were lucky enough to have a free wading pool just next door to the hotel. It turns out she likes water where she can't touch, where she can kick her legs, so we headed to the indoor hotel pool afterward.



Then in Utah my cousins were nice enough to invite us up to their ranch to help celebrate my cousin Lauren's return from a mission to Chicago. We had so much fun with all the family and all the boats...until Aaron lost his wedding ring in the moss!!!!



Oh, and Adelyn didn't really have too much fun with the life jacket...something kept getting in the way of zipping it up!!!

In our last stop on the vacation, we did a little more indoor swimming, with Aaron's cousins this time. I love this shot with his cousin Kori, the sweetest little kid ever!! Adelyn absolutely loved her and started grinning and kicking her legs everytime she came into the room. We miss her already.

Now we haven't been swimming once since we've been back, but hopefully we have enough summer left to do it.

P.S. Adelyn's swimsuits were provided courtesy of Rachel and Olivia. Thanks!!!
