Just Keep Swimming

July was a month of lessons at our house.  The beginning of the month, Connor and Aiden took tennis lessons--but, unfortunately, I didn't take any pictures.  Why?  I have no idea.  The second half of the month, all of the kids took swimming lessons.  Here are a few (not very good) pictures I took.

Connor was in Level 6 this year, which is the highest level...

He has become a really good swimmer over the years!  He can do all the strokes and can even do flip turns when he reaches the end of the pool.  He passed off the top level, and his teacher said he would be good on swim team, if he could get his endurance up a little bit.  Connor said he didn't like swimming enough to be on swim team, so he declined the invitation.  Lame-O!

Aiden did Level 4 this year...

He has really improved as a swimmer as well.  He will need to retake this level next year to pass off a few of the last requirements, but he is doing great!

Cohen was in Level 1 this year.  He finished the preschool levels last year, and was excited to move up into the "big kid levels"...

He passed off the level with flying colors and his teacher was impressed with how good of swimmer he is.

Vivvie did Preschool Level 1 again this year...

I was so proud of her this year!  Last year, she was scared to do anything and everything.  This year, she did everything her teacher asked her to do, and she was able to pass off the level.

It was a good year of lessons.  All the kids had really good teachers, they learned a lot, and they had a great time!  --Lindsay
