Last minute trip to the rec center

On Monday we had a spur of the moment idea to spend the day at the rec center and we had fun doing other things besides just swimming.

A little game of Basketball

Luke showing off his passing skills.
Tanner, showing that he hasn't forgotten the technique Grandpa Turek taught him!
And Khloee the cheerleader doing push ups every time they made a basket.

Next we headed to the rock wall and it wasn't as easy as they thought is was going to be.

I am not sure why none of the pictures of RJ didn't work out but he also climbed the wall. But he mostly liked to just dangle there in his harness a few feet off the ground. He didn't care about how high up he climbed.

RJ has improved tons on his swimming skills. At the first of the summer he wouldn't let go of my arm no matter how shallow the water was. Now he does his own thing (as long as his toes can touch the bottom.)


And then there is Khloee who doesn't care if her head goes underwater or if she no longer can feel the bottom of the pool anymore. She is just happy to be in the water.

One funny thing that happened while we were there was there was about 10 moms sitting on the side of the pool right by the water slides watching there little ones play and trying to keep their hair dry. Until Tanner comes cruising through the shallow end running at his top speed and then right before he gets to the edge he just flops down into the water, sending this monsoon type wave washing over these cute little moms. I just sat on the other side of the pool laughing thinking, "whose kid is that anyway?"
