Aunt Becca and Uncle Dels pool

Last Saturday Aunt Becca and Uncle Del invited us to their St. George house. They were just getting back from their cross country drive with Grandma. The boys were excited to see and spend time with G.G. But being 4 and 6 year old boys the swimming pool was their highlight of the day. I can't really blame them is was WONDERFUL, hot temps cool water, LOVE IT.

Luke with a life jacket on is fearless

He went zipping down the slide, splashed into the water, popped up and then paddled around the pool all on his own.

Kolby liked having a life jacket with at least one other floatation device or.......

The shallow end :)

It was near impossible to get Luke to hold still long enough for a picture of both of them together, this is the best I could do.

I like to call this "The great rescue" Luke went first

Then Kolby

Notice the arms and legs out crab style? It was not a fast decent.

Which made it easier to stop himself altogether from going into the pool. As Kolby yells for help (I should say I was obviously not in the pool since I was taking pictures, I saw that Kolby was in no immediate danger and waited to see how he would work it out)

Luke yelled from across the pool "I'll Help you brother" He grabbed a floating lounge and paddled over to Kolby. Hum... I wonder how this is going to work.

Luke was giving him directions the whole time. "Just step on it Kolby" Kolby apparently didn't think this was the best idea

So Luke climbs up to try and lift Kolby down. (Keeping in mind they weight the exact same) I just loved to see their team work, how they tried to work out the problem on their own. A great opportunity to work on their problem solving skills.

Unfortunately nothing they tried worked and they both called for help. I sat the camera down to jump in but Uncle Dell was faster to the rescue.
Kolby was none the worse for wear after his dramatic experience te-he-heee

The boys had to be dragged out of the pool to leave.
Thanks Aunt Becca and Dell we had a great time!!
