Swimming Lessons

Every summer I enroll the kids in swim lessons at The Peak in Brigham. I want my kids to be able to swim because I am not a good swimmer and I wish I was. Tyler is an awesome swimmer and could be on a swim team if he had more time. He didn't need lessons this year. So it was just Brayden and Ellie.

Well, Ellie is just like her mom. She is not a water lover. She took lessons last summer and we struggled to even get her in the water. This year was better. She got right in and enjoyed it, but when it came time to putting her face in the water, she didn't like it so much. There were tears and moments when she had to sit out with mom for a bit, but she always got back in and kept trying.

Here she is practicing wearing a life vest.

Brayden did great this year. He is getting really good at the front crawl and his back stroke. I am really proud of him.
