The 24th of July - the late version...

We had a great 24th of July evening. We went to the Kearns pool and had lots of fun with my parents and my siblings and Airi. The kids had a great time swimming and splashing and sliding. I convinced Tanner to try jumping off the diving board with me. He was SO worried because even though he has jumped off the diving board other places many times before, he had never jumped into water that was 18 feet deep. I explained to him that he would swim to the side the same way, no matter how deep the water was. So he did it....and THEN he jumped off the high dive with me too! He got Gavin to jump too, and that's all they did from that point on.

Boobug Dancing as usual


Tanner LOVED waiting for the BIG bucket to dump on him


This is the BIG bucket!

After the pool, we came home and watched our neighbors do great fireworks! We had a great evening!
