Sunday Snapshot {The big Belly Flop}

The pool in our little town always opens on Memorial Day Weekend and it starts with the tradition of a Belly Flop Contest. This year, Abigayl, Nate, Eli and Shawn all signed up. It was 105 here yesterday so cold pool water felt good. Shawn was in the "old" category:)

I missed the kids because I was watching closely as this was the first time in the pool for awhile but I caught Shawn and since he doesn't get a lot of time here on the blog... just thought I share with you his winning flop!

The cannonball up high...
 Moving to flop form...
 Almost there, getting his head up and arms ready...
 The splash...
Check out the judges face...
Here is the judge a little closer:)
 Eli was just as excited...
Nate just enjoyed the time sitting in the shade of the lifeguard stand and dangling his toes in the water...
 poor daddy... 3 hours later his belly still showed the after effects but he had fun and was great entertainment for the rest of us! We finished the evening with a night at the drive in. Great snacks and a good movie, Kung Fu Panda 2! Heghine's first drive in experience!
