The hoser and the hosed









So the title makes sense in my head. If it doesn't to you yet, hopefully it will at the end of this little post. Henry received a haircut the other day and at the end of it, Derek said he would spray Henry off with the hose. So hence the title, Derek is the hoser and Henry is the hosed. lol
Haircuts are not the only thing that has gone on lately, we went bowling and Dad started out with a STRIKE his first attempt. Then one day while I was in the kitchen Harrison grabbed the broom and just started sweeping away, I PROMISE I do not practice child labor in any way!! Harrison likes to crawl in Henrys bed lately and hide, he thinks he's pretty funny. And Henry attended back to school night and met his teacher, that was fun he is excited to be a LEOPARD. Harrison had his 2nd bday but I will write about that in an upcoming post. One thing that I found funny, was one day I told the boys to go stand by the door and I would take a picture, so they did. I then said "Say Cheese", so Harrison said, "CHEEEEEESE". It is the picture of the boys together. It was funny. Enjoy, till next time :)

The last swim session...or is it?





Wow, I feel so lazy has it really been that long since my last post? So Henry wrapped up his aquatic skills with grandmas 4th session. He did very well this summer. His strokes looks great and I love to watch his "contact" dives. He was a fish, and it was such a relief to let him go swimming whenever and I never once worried about him. So for that, thanks grandma Virg:) Harrison had his "moments" in the pool, but has yet to really sprout his fins. It was a fun summer, and now we transition into the end of summer. It wasn't too hot, or too cold this year I think it was just right. So here are some pics of Henrys final p-day this year. Possibly forever!?!? Only time will tell, and grandma Virg. She said that she wants to go on sabbatical next summer and teach swimming lessons in Lithuania:) lol Enjoy the pics

Swimming Lessons at Gins Swimming























If at first you don't succeed......try again next summer!!! At least that is the attitude I have taken on trying to have Harrison start swimming lessons:) I like to think there is probably a reason, grandma doesn't start beginners until they are 2 1/2 years old. But then, in all reality I think the reason swimming lessons didn't work this year is, yep you guessed it.....HARRISON;) We attempted to have him take the other day I went into the house and Henry joined me while Grandma attempted to work her MAGIC on Harrison. So, abra ka da brah!!!! And, well nothing (thanks for trying). Harrison was not going to have any part of lessons this year. (we will call in February to make sure we get him in;)
Henry on the other hand, is doing an AWESOME job swimming. He is a little fish. He knows the front crawl, back crawl, diving is pretty good also. He is progressing very well. Good job H little H could learn a lot from you!!! Henry just recently wrapped up his 3rd session of swimming. Here are some pics of him on performance day. There are also some pictures of the "attempt" for Harrison. ENJOY!!!! Till next time:)

The summer fun continues at Bear Lake (for big H:)






This past weekend Henry had the opportunity to go to Bear Lake with Grandpa M. They took the jet skis and met up with the Lamborns. Henry enjoyed hanging out with the Lamborn boys. He was able to feel the need for speed on the jet ski with grandpa, and had a fun time finding and sorting through sea shells. He gave the pedal boat a try but told me he had a hard time doing it, because he thinks his legs were too short. LOL He had a fun time and wants to go jet skiing again soon. ;) So grandpa if you read this......LOL Enjoy the pics :)
