A REAL Fun Day







The kids' last day of swim lessons was this past Thursday. It was a HOT day and was the perfect morning for a swim! (A big change from the previous end-of-lessons Fun Day where it was rainy and FREEZING!) The kids both had a lot of fun...




Dunking and sliding...



(On a side note, Emily has "graduated" from having to use a full mask to just plain-old swim goggles! Woohoo!)

Swimming and splashing...


Jumping off of the diving board! Yup, that's my big-boy leaping off of the board to his favorite instructor, Caitlin. He was so brave! And, he had so much fun he jumped off another 5 times after that! It was so exciting to watch.



I could even tell he had to use the, uh, restroom (see below), but he was having too much fun to take a break and held it in until Fun Day was over!

There he goes!!!

Emily also took her turn in giving us a big jump...but only at the end. (She's just not as sold on the whole diving board concept yet!)
And, finally, here are the kiddos with a couple of their many wonderful swim instructors. Miss Caitlin is an "old favorite" (this is her third year w/our kids!), Breanne is "new" and taught Emily last session and Emily is Caitlin's sister and helped w/our Emily's class this session. To the right is Christian's favorite instructor, Amanda, who was Emily's teacher last year!. These ladies all remember the kids from year to year and it just makes going to lessons extra fun for everyone.




Great job, kids, on another wonderful year of swim lessons! You've both come so far and learned so much!
