Cole and the Tarzan Swing

This past summer Matt's firm had a party at his boss's ranch. He has this amazing property with horses and other miscellaneous animals and a fun pond to swim and canoe in. It is paradise for the kids! This tarzan swing is set up in the pond and as you can see from the picture, it's VERY high. A few years ago I watched a grown man stand at the edge of the platform for five minutes before he had enough guts to go for it! Matt even says it's pretty freaky once you get up there and he has butterflies in his stomach before he jumps. Anyway, this is a picture of COLE jumping - I was so proud of him that he was so brave! He started by jumping off the platform a couple of times and then gathered the courage to go off the swing! After that, he couldn't get enough and went several times until his arms were bright red from slapping on the water. What a stud! He is such a brave kid!
