Vacation at Grandma and Grandpa's

Karsyn and I went to the Lake of the Ozarks with the family to see Grandma and Grandpa for a week!!  We were having such a great time, I forgot to take pictures!!  LOL!!  Here are the whole three pictures I took while we were there!  I'm gonna have to be a better mom the next time we go and take more pictures for the memories!!!

Karsyn and I swam in the lake a few times and she loved it!  It was much easier to let her swim in this pool with Charlee, though!!  At least she didn't have to have a life jacket on and could play with toys!

I took this pic for Daddy who had to stay at home because of work.  She was definitely worn out every night, but loved waking up every morning!!  She just couldn't wait to get in the water or the boat!!! 

Great vacation with great family and we are looking forward to the next one when Daddy gets to come along too!!!  

Lake Texoma Vacation

The weekend after 4th of July, we went on a mini-vacation to Lake Texoma with our friends!  After a 7 hour drive there, we were ready to have some fun in the sun!!!

Karsyn in the water!!  Don't worry, she is sitting down here...the water was really shallow!!

We had a great view.  The fireworks were set off over the water.

We had such a great time, and can't wait to make this a yearly event!!  

Driving with Daddy

Country living is great!!!  Karsyn loves to go on drives with Daddy!!

Hey, keep your eyes on the road!!

Had to give a quick smile!!

What's this thing???  Again....eyes on the road!!!  LOL!

Swimming Lessons

Earlier this summer, I decided to put Karsyn in swimming lessons.  I am so excited at the things that we get to do together now that I am home with her.  If I were still working, she would not be able to attend activities like this since they are only offered during the week and during working hours.  I am so thankful that we get to do these kinds of thing together!  At first, I had to step out of sight so she could get used to the ladies that were teaching her, but it didn't take her long to calm down and get in the pool! 

After day 1, she was pretty tired, but that night, she was asking when she could go back in the pool with Ginger!!  LOL!! 

Here is the start of day 2!  All smiles!

Here is a short video of Karsyn swimming!!  She was doing a great job!!!

Kick, Kick, Kick!!

1, 2, 3......

Yay!!  She went under water!!!

Practicing her kicks out of the water!

More practice on her belly!

After such a great week of lessons, we went to the pool with friends and had fun!

A big thanks to Ginger and Yulia for taking the time to teach Karsyn lessons and having the patience with such a young swimmer!!!
