A large portion of our time here in Florida has been spent in Grandpa and Grandma's pool. Dylan has LOVED it since day 1, typically swimming at least twice a day and always asking first thing when he woke up if we could go out and swim. If we held him off until 8/8:30 it was usually a good day!
Will was much more timid with the water but once we forced him in, he finally got comfortable.
The hot tub was a favorite among everyone not only for slightly warmer water but the bubbles! The pool water was always warmer than the air temperature so even though the temperature was usually mid to high 70's it could feel a little cold. I think Grandma and Grandpa warmed the pool to somewhere around 85-87 degrees (all for their grandkids! :)
Keeley was a little fish, definitely not afraid of anything. Here she is jumping off the hot tub wall into the deep end (6 feet)
And of course Dylan has to get in on the action...
At this point, Will wanted to jump as well but was a little more hesitant than the other two. By the end of the week, he was jumping off holding my hand and was ok going under water and letting the floaties pop him back up.

The slide in the top of this picture was also a hit. The kids loved sliding down and jumping off the end of it. Definitely worth the money Grandpa!

Lauren took her first swim down here as well. She seemed to enjoy the water in her limited time in it. It always seemed easier to get in the pool during her naps so she missed out a lot.
hey - I made it in a picture, I am on this vacation as well :)
Both boys have asked if we can get a pool in Geneva and swim when we get back home. I don't think they quite understand that it's 30 degrees and COLD at home.
