Vacation in Phoenix Part 2

The pool was awesome. The kids loved going to the pool to cool off. We tried to go each day either early morning or late afternoon. A couple of the days we went in the early evening, but learned that the thunderstorms roll in every evening this time of year. It is monsoon season in Arizona and here in Sierra Vista we get some pretty heavy rains. In Phoenix, it is more thunder and lightning and high winds. Nick and Delaney loved the water slide. I am so proud of the little girls. Emi has been working hard during swim lessons this summer and she was swimming independently. Annie and Zoe have also been working hard and both were able to swim around (wearing life vests) on their own. It is the first time in many years that I have been in a swimming pool without holding someone. I feel liberated! (I know, it was just the last post that I was moaning about my babies growing up. But there are some perks!)
