We have been having a blast here with the Staples in Arizona.
The boys' feet are so dry and cut up from all the time spent in the pool that they have started wearing socks and sandals while swimming. We have spent a majority of our waking hours in there. Before we arrived I told Candace that Solomon and Jedi's swimming resembled drowning rats. They have improved to the point of swimming the whole length without taking a breath.
Evie is doing amazing, too. She has progressed from a white knuckled death grip on daddy to actually swimming solo.
Zach...he enjoys staying on the pool steps and going down the slide. Not much swimming progress, but he does have a dark tan.
Homeschooling-wise, it's going to be hard to convince the kids that Arizona isn't surrounded by water.
