Between Trips

We've only had three days between our trips to New York, New Orleans, Orlando and then Indiana. Between Orlando and Indiana, we went diving. Ty certified in 2005 but then only dove once, and that was shortly after he certified.

July 2 Refresher shallow dive for Ty, and Jasmine working on clearing her ears. The ENT specialist wasn't much help.

Dive buddies.

Merman sighting

I hired our instructor to go with us on the dives since we are all beginners.

About 40 feet down

I didn't know I could keep it. I thought if it was that deep, it was alive. But I guess they are green if they are still alive. Ty kept his.

July 3 we took time to go to the pool

I work on teaching them to swim in the summer.

We went to the bay for the 4th of July.Jessica and Adam had to work, so we had a lot less people. 

Jasmine is my spotter

Kaleb on the kneeboard. He left wearing a swimsuit and lifejacket. He returned wearing only the lifejacket!! Perhaps I should get him compression shorts for kneeboarding?

I let him borrow my towel.

The next day, July 5th, Ty, Jessica, Jasmine, the twins and I left for Indiana!
