Great Day For All

Yesterday was a wonderful day for everyone.  It started out with Jack and Ewan's first swim lesson.  They were extremely excited!  The night before they were testing out their new goggles in the bath tub and practiced blowing bubbles. 

We got to the gym early and played in the gymnasium.  Then they changed into their swim trunks and had a snack in the lobby.  They were giddy with excitement!  They truly loved the pool.  Their instructor is fabulous and they did extremely well.  They bunny hopped in the water, blew bubbles and jumped into the pool from the edge and went under water.  My little water boys had so much fun!!!

After the gym we went to Moe's for lunch to celebrate.  That of course made all three boys extremely happy.  They do love their Moe's, especially the sour cream!!

That afternoon we got Sean's chaise lounge from Emmie M.  It arrived at Oma's house and she brought it over to us.  The boys were asleep at the time so it was timed well.  I put it in the family room and Jack was the first to come down and find it.  Jack's response was "awesome"!  Eventually everyone else woke up and fell in love with it too.

Once they were all up we took the chair up to Sean's room.  This was extremely exciting for the boys!  It is perfect...the rocket pattern fits in wonderfully with his space robot room.  Sean definitely knows it is his chair and isn't too keen on sharing it.  If somebody else is sitting in it he tries to climb over them to sit at the "head" seat!  They can all squeeze in, but it is a tight squeeze.  Thanks Emmie M and Mr. Dan for the most perfect gift ever!!!  Of course now we may have to find something for Jack and Ewan's room too....

And finally the day ended with good things for all....we had some of the asparagus from our garden in a mushroom asparagus risotto with London broil for dinner.  YUMMY!!  Sean in particular was chowing down on EVERYTHING!!

Good times had by all.
