There have been a few different things and pictures that I have been wanting to post, so I will do it all at one time. The first will be of Gunnar at his last swim meet, which was held at Coffeyville. He seems to be enjoying it pretty well. He didn't have his best swims yesterday, but I think he still had a good time.
Here he is waiting on the block. Only the swimmers and coaches were aloud to go inside the fence by the pool, therefore I did not get a good picture of him swimming.
I got a good picture of him after a swim talking with his friends.
I have been experimenting with the shooting modes on my new camera. I always enjoy taking pictures of the kids while they swim, hence the pictures below.
Gunnar boy and his goggles.
Miss Wylie.
Wylie is getting much better at swimming. She recently swam clear across the pool (24 feet) to her dad.
Gunnar still enjoys the slide, while Wylie still refuses to go down it.
We sort of have a new pet in the DeWeese household. Wylie named him Toadie, which I am pretty sure this is a frog, but Wylie still thinks she'll keep the name. He hangs out on the side of our fish pond or on a lily pad and then jumps in the water every time we open the back door to go outside. Although, he is letting us get closer and closer to him everyday.

So when we tore down the house next door we knew we would find "treasures" that would come up from the ground and they will probably keep coming up for the next 20 years. Josh found this piece of glass on the lot. And yes, the color is actually that pretty and it is also a hefty chunk of glass. I would guess it weighs around 4 pounds. Gunnar liked it a lot. He said he though maybe Superman might be real, because it looks like kryptonite. Gunnar also informed me that if it were a diamond we would get to meet the President of the United States.
