As usual, we spent the fourth of July weekend in Massachusetts. Unfortunately this year, the fourth was on Monday when we had to go home, so we didn't get to participate in the neighborhood parade. We still had a great weekend though!
On Saturday was Cathy's baby shower. It was very nice and she got a lot of great gifts. Here are the Walker ladies at the shower: Kristin, Joan, Cathy, Kim and Ella in front
While we were at the shower, the boys and Leah went down to the Landing to go swimming. Jack and Cameron check out the beach.
Jeff supervising the kiddos - Jack, Cam and Leah
Sweet Miss Leah! She LOVES her hat.
They got tired of the beach pretty quickly and headed out to the dock to jump off and swim. Cameron wanted to jump in on his own, with no one in the water to catch him. He did great!
Then Daddy showed off his diving skills
And back in jumps Cameron
Then Jack wanted a turn
Leah wanted to jump in too, but she can't quite jump yet. Instead she backed into the water, just like she would go down any step. Very cute!
Leah going underwater!
Apparently she was not a big fan of the yucky tasting water. I can't say I blame her!
This is what happens when you leave a baby girl along with a bunch of dads. The poor kiddo ends up with one sad looking pigtail coming off the side of her head. This would have been acceptable in the 1980s, when it could have been considered a side ponytail. Now it just looks silly! :-P
Daddy dives again
And Leah backs into the water again
After we got back from the shower and they got back from the Landing, everyone went over to Tom and Joan's for dinner. Leah and Ella hanging out.
Goofing around with Jack
Cathy, about eight months pregnant
The next day we decided to go back to the Landing for more swimming, since the kids had so much fun the day before. Unfortunately, it was much more overcast and chilly, so we didn't do much swimming. First Cameron and Daddy checked out the water. There were also more waves, so Cam really didn't like the water as much today.
Walking out to the dock
A cute family picture - I can't believe that everyone is looking at the camera!
Walking back down to the landing. I think this one is pretty cute too. :)
My sweet kiddos
Leah and her cherry hat. The girl LOVES hats! She is probably the only baby ever who will actually keep them on.
That night we went up to Kim and Jeff's for dinner. The kids had a blast playing in the backyard. Cameron and Jack took turns being soccer goalie. Jack kicks!
Coming in from the other side! Cameron loves being goalie, and he is actually pretty good at it.
Now it is Cam's turn
Meanwhile, Ella and Leah play in the grass
It was such a fun weekend, as always!

Love Leah's hats and backing into the water!
It is great to see how much both Cam and Leah love the water.
