Time to Hang up the Towel

The kids had a great time at swim lessons this year. However, all fun things come to an end and it's time to hang up the towel to swim lessons for the summer. We had 1 pass their class and 2 that didn't. Which really surprised me because they all did so well and all were able to keep up with the rest of the class. Oh, and the dreaded diving board...which wasn't so dreaded this year. On the last day they all get to jump off the diving board. In years past, I've had to bribe 1 or 2 kids with a snow cone. There was no bribing necessary this year. They all couldn't wait! One thing is for sure, Riley will be ready for her turn next summer, she got tired real quick of just being a spectator!

Just have to say your kids are so adorable! So much life and spirit to them, I don't know how you keep up!

We are in our second round of lessons. Both my boys passed the last session but I doubt they will pass this next one...maybe I will be amazed...it sounds like it has something to do with dice and not skill...who knows!

Love the back to school (and byu of course) countdowns, I was thinking of doing one myself. I"m beginning to look forward to Aug 21. My kids are starting to fight too much! :-)
