2 Pool Day

On Friday we beat the 90 degree heat by spending most of the morning and afternoon in swimming pools.  We visited Cascade Bay in Eagan in the morning and spent some time swimming with Olivia and Emily.  Katie, Allie and Emily all jumped in the pool by themselves for the first time!  Such a proud moment for me!  The water was only 3 feet deep where they jumped and after much convincing all 3 girls decided they could jump in on their own.  As we were leaving the pool, Karen convinced me that going to the Redwood Pool in the afternoon would be much more fun than my original plan of cleaning the house, so we made a quick trip to Target and met Karen and Emily at pool #2 at 1:00.  The Redwood pool is unique in the fact that it is an old fashioned swimming pool with diving boards and no zero entry.  I brought along their life jackets and the girls enjoyed jumping in and swimming on their own with their life jackets on.  A great way to spend a beautiful, sunny June day!
