Swimming season is here….for some of the family!

Ooh it was cold just watching them! John had the boys dive to the bottom to get the thermometer and it said 55! At one point the top of the water was in the low 70s but the kids do NOT take after me when it comes to swimming in cold water. I can’t wait until John puts the solar heater together. After Ben had been in for hours today I asked John if he ever heard of somebody willingly getting hypothermia. This last picture is of Ben at the end of his swim. He said he wasn’t cold and that the water was warm but that his “chin is just bumping”. I had John start a campfire and that got him out. I’m really looking forward to a summer at home watching the boys teach Jamie to swim while I hide with Jillian under the big deck umbrella we need to buy.
