Water Baby

Anna went 'swimming' for the first time today.  Her friend, Kaylee, invited her over to try out their new wading pool.  Exciting!  I finally got to have Anna try on her bathing suit.  She was so cute!
She wasn't quite sure what she thought about the pool at first.  I had to get in to coax her in.  Then, she would only stand.  I asked her to sit and she'd squat down just far enough for the bottom of her diaper to dip in, then she'd stand up real fast.  She did slip and fall on her bottom once- she didn't like that.
After spending about 20 minutes in the pool, Anna was done.  She wandered the yard and ate strawberries and chased bubbles.  We ended up spending almost two hours hanging out with our friends.  What a great day!

Steve's Work

Mark, Darrel, Steve and Keith in front of the Temple on the roof of the Conference Center.

Steve's boss and a co-worker where here last week for some training.  Steve has worked at his job for 9 months now, and this was the first time he'd met his manager personally.  Right now, the manager lives in Minnesota, one co-worker in Tennessee (he's the one that came out), one in India, and one here in Utah.  They've talked a lot over the phone, but meeting face to face was nice.  Because the boss and co-worker aren't from here, Steve and Keith (from here in Utah) decided to show them the sights.

Our family on the Conference Center roof.

On Monday, they took them to Temple Square and the Conference Center.  Anna and I got to go along.  On Tuesday, they all went out to dinner at a Middle Eastern restaurant and Thursday they went boating on Willard Bay.  The two left Friday afternoon.  It was really nice getting to meet Mark (the boss).  I hope he enjoyed visiting Utah.
