Swimming Lessons - Level 1


Summer wouldn't be summer without Swimming lessons. Swimming lessons didn't start out exactly as we had planned. Karlee was super excited to get in the water, but once we got to the pool she had changed her mind. It took 20 minutes to convince her she was there to get in the pool and learn to swim.


Love to see this girl smile. She loved swimming lessons - once she got into the water. She came up with almost every excuse in the book not to get into the water. It was all nerves but once she was in the water she was having fun! 


This pictures makes me laugh... Always one day the kids get to go off the diving board. A lot of kids were brave and went off the board alone and others were helped down with the help of their teachers. Karlee was so proud of herself that she went off the diving board - even with the help of her teachers. Small victories - We celebrate them all. haha


We loved having the last hour of swim lessons because we stayed after and ate a picnic lunch with Karlee's cousins. After our picnic lunch we spent the day at the pool. The kids loved it and so did I.  I love the two weeks of swim lessons - its a good way to relax and enjoy some warm sun.


Here's Karlee with her cousins (and neighbor friend - Jordan) on their last day of swim lessons. Karlee passed her level 1 swim lessons. Yahoo!!!!
