Swimming lessons & New pool

Today was the boys' first day at swim lessons. They take them each summer up in Brigham City at the Peak. They had a great time and did an awesome job. They are going to be good little swimmers, unlike their mother. I remember being traumatized once at swim lessons and so I never really learned to swim. Do you remember, mom?? Well anyways, me and Ellie just sat by the pool and roasted a bit in the sun.

I think next year I will get Ellie and me in a "mommy and me" class.

Well, after swimming at Steph's house last Sunday for Janet's birthday party, Bryce decided that we needed an above ground pool too. A "poor man pool" as Steph would say. It is 18 ft. across by 4 ft. deep. Bryce and his dad set it up this weekend. The boys and some of their cousins and friends have already had a blast in it. Bryce, Ellie and myself haven't gotten in just yet. The water temperature is about 84 degrees. I'm going to give it a few more days to cook in the hot sun. The boys will be able to practice their swim techniques in the pool. I think it will be a great investment for the family this summer.
