Swimming Lessons

The kids started swimming lessons at Seven Peaks yesterday and are having a blast. Peter Gordon is learning to put his face in the water and gaining confidence in the pool. He's trying out arm motions here. Hannah is working on diving and freestyle. Becca is learning the breaststroke and has plans to learn the butterfly tomorrow. Emily wishes she could get in and has had to be content with wading in the shallow parts of the wave pool.

Hannah's Birthday

Hannah had her birthday last Wednesday and had a happy day. She got some clothes, some books and a new stuffed animal. The stuffed animal, a monkey she has named Patches, is a definite hit and has taken its place of honor as her bedtime buddy. She had a party on Saturday with her friends and really had fun playing over in the park. She had a princess cake (cake stuffed with pudding and jam) and thought it was delicious.
