We made s'mores in my parents' backyard and went swimming while my sister was here.
A bit about my sister ... she has cerebral palsy and decided, not too long ago, to take her health into her own hands. She started eating more nutritious food and joined a fitness center. She has her own personal trainer there! She has gotten off of all her prescription meds and feels SO much better. She was picking both Freya and Mazie up during her visit ... I couldn't believe how strong she was. She will always have to wear her brace, but she has made so many improvements simply through diet and exercise. She is an inspiration. I'm so proud of her. Now, get off your buns and get moving!
On to the pics of swimming!
(I'm still figuring out the settings on my camera so ignore the over-exposure, etc.)
S'mores pictures soon to follow.The cute pool
Didn't know Nate was snappin' these pics.
I'm so white, I'm glowing. Angelic, no?
Relaxing on the big lounger
Freya kept leaning forward so we put her in backward
so she could see
Me and my babe
She tried to drink the water
... like a kitty
Mazie held on to Freya most of the time ...
keeping her "safe"

quite a bit of "sister" theme in this post. made me think of Aunt Esther speaking on Saturday to me about the specialness of the sister bond. the shot of Mazie holding Freya's arm for safety is poignant.
