We finally earned enough beans in the bean jar to go swimming at the YMCA. It was quite a party - with cousins and everything! We started with lunch at Aunt Shelly's and then went over to the Y by her house. Hannah, Emma, and Dan were down visiting Grandpa and Grandma for the weekend so they all got to come too.
I think Caden had the most fun of all. He LOVED swimming. He is not one bit scared of the water.

We filled the bean jar!

Way to go! Looks like fun. I guess we should have used beans when you were kids instead of the hot tamalies. Funny how every week-end after Katie came home our jar was smaller instead of bigger. Congratulations!

I think Kim was out of the house too when mom tried to "fix the kids" with the hot tamalies. Worst idea ever. Katie made it so no matter how hard we worked our jar always stayed the same.
Our bean jar is different from your hot tamale jars. We all fill the same jar - it's a family jar. Of course, it fills lots faster than your jars did because no one eats dry beans - yuck!
That was a good idea! And yes, Katie botched it. I'm thinking Kim was still in the house. Katie came home every chance she got so I guess it was worth a few hot tamales.
And, after all, you all turned out great! Love you all
MOM
