Swim Lessons

So all the kids are taking a whole month of swim lessons at the new Kroc Center. ("thank you pappy"). This is inside the "leisure pool" area. This is one of many community centers donated by Joan & Ray Kroc. They were built in many differant states. Salem was lucky enough to get one too.

Hayla is in pre-2; working on floats & bobs.

Talon is in level 4. Working on....Iforget the strokes (backstrokes & ?)...but she personaly is working on holding her breath longer. They swim the lenghth of the pool back & forth. (olympic size). There is only one other girl in her class so she gets lots of 1 on 1. Her & Hayla have the same teacher. Some how there were no picts of Aden taken : (

He is in level 3. Working on forward strokes and side breathing . But he can hold his breath for a long time. Look back at the picture.. yes,the trees are in the building. There fake.The play structure in a tree fort where the kids can make buckets of cold water dump over the lazy river that flows under the fort.

This was day one. Her floating was a little off. Shes got it down now.

She looks so old out there!

Out side after class

Aden was suddenly sticken blind by the sun when I wanted to take a picture. And of course I refrused to take a goofy looking picture of him.

They are loving it. Class is only 27 min (which it should be longer) but they closed the pool that they used to take lessons at.And we have an early class, which means there are not a lot of people in the changing areas and every where else.The whole center is awsome they have a rock wall and 2 gyms and all kinds of classes (guitar-dance-yoga-ect.),2 pools, a church(its a Salvation Army thing),full kitchen.
