Swim Lessons

Don't be fooled. This isn't your average swimming lesson. There are cows to watch, chickens to feed and horses to ride (or watch others ride).

This was our first experience with swimming lessons and I was completely impressed. Our kids love the water, but had few swimming skills.

In their 8-day lessons they learned the breast stroke and butterfly stroke -both arms and legs. James can swim the length of the pool, and Elizabeth the width. They couldn't be happier!



Of course play time with friends is always fun, too!





Ready...
Set...

Go!

...and swim back...


James was great at floating

And While Lizzy and James conquered the pool, Anna conquered jumping on the trampoline.
All. by. her.self.
