So the summer, as with the last few summers, began with swim lessons. I have to start out by explaining that due to a lack of learning how to swim properly, I actually am a bit afraid of the water. I believe if I felt like I was a stronger swimmer, that I could enjoy water a lot more. So at some point, I will join an Adult Swim Class and learn to swim. For now, however, I am just insisting that my kids learn properly so hopefully they won't have the same, irrational, fears that I do. :)
This year the M&J learned diving, treading water, front stroke, back stroke, and of course, jumping off the diving board. They always love their swim lessons and they learned a lot. In fact, Jake has now joined Morgan in that he can be in the pool without any flotation device what-so-ever! So nice when they get to that point. :)
Here are the pics:
They will probably start swim lessons next year.
Stay tuned for more summer fun...

Have lessons Kasey, you will miss out fun with the kids if you don't. Like you, I never learned to swim properly as a child (I was nearly 30 when I had lessons) and now I am fine in the water and swim weekly.
Wow! Next year, you'll be able to sit there and read a book, or do whatever you want, since all your kids will be in lessons! How sweet will that be?
