Ah....the pool

(July 25th)
So we discovered at Lake Powell this summer that Hazel has a slight fear of water. Probably normal since we hadn't exposed her to it very much this summer or last. So we decided to take advantage of free Saturdays at the pool here in Ogden. We started going to Lorrin Farr, which is where Sandlot was filmed (go Kate Anderson!), and had a good time. Then one Saturday we headed up to the North Ogden pool which--no offense to Lorrin Farr--is SO much nicer. We had a blast. We got there fifteen minutes after it opened and there was already a huge line. They had waterfalls, frog slides, great kiddie pools and everything was clean. Hazel went underwater for the first time, jumped off the edge of the pool into David's arms, and swam by herself in the shallow part of the kiddie pool where she could still touch the bottom. Lottie did better this time because the water was so warm and passed out by the end. What a great day and a fun memory.

This was Hazel posing for us before we left the house.
And THIS makes me laugh so hard. After lunch, Hazel was dancing to the music they were playing at the pool. She was showing off this move where she stretches her arms out behind her. I thought it was worth sharing.
