Aunt B's visit

Aunt Nysha (aka Aunt B) came with Nana to visit the girls recently.  Now that she has moved to AZ, we all are hoping to see her more often.  

The girls had a blast!  They got their toenails painted a pretty purple.  

They spent several days at the pool.  Makena enjoyed the water, but most of the time she just liked being held.  But she did float some (thanks to Julie Emo helping her learn to float).  She was even courageous enough to jump into the water.  She was initially trying to jump into the pool near the ladder, but Derek wasn't a fan of the railing and other people around.  He asked Makena, "Would you please jump off the ledge for me?"  Aunt Nysha quickly pointed out the irony in that statement.

As always, Makena enjoyed the snacks....

Here is the fun parts of our brave child.  

It's fun jumping in the pool, but Karis wanted to be tossed across the water. Derek loves the sequence where Nysha realizes she may have thrust Karis a bit too hard in the air.  He was quite thankful I caught those shots with my camera.  

During the consult, Karis said, "Again please!", so we knew she was fine.   Not wanting to be a human missile, Makena kept her distance and played in the kiddie pool.
