Swim Lessons-Round 1

Swimming lessons 2014 have commenced!!
 
First round this year was with Mr. Collin and Mrs. Lindsey at my friend Amie's house. We took from them last year too and Cade did really great listening to Collin so we decided we would start off with Collin and then take from Mrs. Elkie later in the summer.
 
 
Best news was is that they got to take lessons with their besties, Gage and Mason!!

 
The first couple of days were rough, but they worked through the fear and on day 3 were ready to go!!

 
One day Cade would NOT stop crying so I told Collin he had my permission to throw him in the deep end...and well that's exactly what he did...literally chunked him in the deep end and of course went and got him. Cade didn't cry much after that with fear of being thrown again!!


Skittles were a their reward for being good!


We had some challenges of rain and storms on some nights that caused lessons to get cancelled and rescheduled, but we were able to get them all in and the boys really did great. You can see below, they loved to help each other get up out of the water.

 
Sweet brothers!


 
Kara even got to come with us one day!! See here for more on Kara and who she is.



Great job swimming boys!! Hopeful after this summer of lessons that if you ever did fall in a pool, you might be able to save yourselves!! I think we also have some future great swimmers in the family following after Papa, Daddy and Dani!
 
Stay tuned for Round 2.
