So these pictures are coming in backward from order, but this is Amelia freezing after she got out of the pool, and still wanting to go back in. She's in both a towel and a blanket to keep warm.
Zander and his silly faces, never looking at the camera directly, unless you really focus him. But, he's having a blast!
I had to show off this braided piggytail I did on Amelia, it turned out quite well. She wasn't too thrilled to sit for that long and especially didn't like the side ones being put in, but she loves the pretties in her hair.
Amelia hanging with Daddy.
She wasn't very sure at going in at first. She would just test the water with her feet, and squalor if it got too far up for the first 15minutes or so.
On June 4th Free Saturday Family activities started for Weber and Davis counties. On this particular Saturday we decided to take the opportunity to go to the Roy Aquatic Center, since it was the only free day that was allowed. We knew that it would be crowded, which usually isn't my cup of tea, but I can't always allow that to hold me and my family back from having a great time. Especially when we're on such a tight budget, and this was free.
I only got a couple of dollar floating donuts for the kids. I figured for the most part Faith and Zander were too big for them, so mostly Carter and Amelia used them. As usual in most pictures taken, Zander is almost never looking at the camera, and doing something goofy.
I love Faith's face in the picture, she's got this porcelain skin, with cute freckles on the top of her cheecks and her nose. I just love them. I actually was able to get her hair in like this braided ponytail thing, which, believe it or not, is harder to do on her than on Amelia, because she doesn't hold as still.
My little Carter boy, was probably the most excited. Ever since I mentioned that we'd go, he was non-stop talking about it, and then both him and Zander would always count down the day. They made sure they were very good the last couple of days, keeping their rooms clean.
Little Miss Millie was so excited, she was also very possessive with her floating donut.
