For the next couple of weeks London had swim class. The weather was pretty chilly during those weeks which made the water pretty cold, but we managed to learn some pretty awesome swimming skills.
All ready for swim class!

One the last weekend of June the church across the street from our house has a big festival with fireworks. We had people over for a taco dinner and the fireworks and everyone loved the prime fireworks spot. We're making sure to make this happen every year!

The next week we made a quick trip up to Stevens Point. We meet some old friends, played at the park and had Belt's ice cream. It was a short trip, but very fun!
