This week was very cool for the first week of August.  The older kids (Elaine and Adam) have swimming lessons at an outdoor community pool.  Even the swim instructors were hesitant to go into the pool.  Elaine swam the entire length of the pool.  She proudly told Aaron the news when he got home on Thursday evening.

Our garden is starting to produce produce. :)  We have gotten many cherry tomatoes, three beef-steak tomatoes, a couple of cucumbers and a green pepper this week.  We also got 5 big cucumbers from another family's garden last Sunday.  We are blessed with 3 children who are each enthusiastic about eating garden produce.  Our cherry tomatoes rarely last long.
