Summer of 2012

The summer of 2012 has come and gone, although here in Houston you wouldn't know it, other than the congestion on the freeways.  Although it went by way too fast, we had a great time.  Labor day weekend marked the official end, and we enjoyed time with family at one of Bethany and Ryan's community pools.

Asher learned to swim last summer and Ryan was trying to encourage him to go off the diving board.  His mom added an additional incentive - an Oreo cookie.  He eagerly went off the diving board, then went again and again and wouldn't stop.  When I told him he must really like diving he replied "I'm getting lots of cookies."

Papa had lots of fun going down the clamshell slide with the grandkids.

We then all went out for ice cream.  A great ending to summer!
