Because it is supposed to rain on Father’s Day, we decided to celebrate a bit early by heading out for an afternoon of swimming at the “Dothage Fun Complex.” We spent the afternoon swimming, chatting, snacking, and relaxing. The kids, and adults, had a great time!
Laura discovered that she could float all over the pool wearing a life vest. She can swim fairly well, but the water was up to her nose so the vest was a good compromise for her.
Andy got in on the relaxing action with a beer and a raft.
John can’t swim as well as Laura yet, so he mostly hung out on rafts or by the side of the pool. I suspect it won’t be long before he decides to put on the life vest and go for it!
Tamara and Kyler arrived later in the afternoon and Kyler jumped right in. We got about thirty minutes more of swimming time before we had to drag the kids out of the pool because the rain arrived. All the “kids” were disappointed, but we had to go inside.
We spent the remainder of the day eating great food, playing for the kids, and talking for the adults. I think it might have been the perfect “Father’s Day.” Thanks to Andrea and Kathryn for having us out! We very much appreciated it!
