Summer Full of Swimming!

Well, I'm sure everybody knows (that lives in Texas anyway) that our temperature is in the 100's everyday, so there isn't much else to do but swim! We go pretty much everyday. Our favorite place to go is the YMCA. Their pool is GREAT! When we don't go to the Y, we just go down to our pool where we live. I bought Payton this "floating" suit, and at first he was a little skeptical of it. He didn't quite trust it to keep him up, but after wearing it for a couple of weeks, he thinks it's wonderful. He just started to try to swim by himself. The suit keeps him straight up and down, and he swims like that. It is pretty funny to watch. He looks like he is just jogging in the water and splashing with his arms. It actually does work for him though. He gets where he wants to go, as you can see in the video I posted. Since I haven't done a post in a while, I am also going to post a few of our 4th of July pictures and some other random ones as well!
