swim lessons

Ok. I'm a little late posting these pictures of the boys at their swimming lessons last week. Our babysitter hooked us up a couple years ago with private lessons at the swimming pool in Mt. Pleasant. Her daughter had taken them before & she thought it would be a good option for our boys, since Evan hadn't taken lessons before & Collin wasn't so thrilled about group lessons. She even took them herself, which was a major bonus for me. They love it, too, they have one teacher to themselves for an entire week. I think this is their 3rd year. I only took them a few times this week & I missed alot of good picture moments, unfortunately. I was really wanting to get Collin going off the high dive, but he ran way too fast! Thought these were neat, though, each of them having talks with their teachers. Collin didn't seem to have any troubles doing what his teacher asked, except for the last day when he was supposed to go off the high dive.... got cold feet at the end {says there was a heckler next in line}. Evan did most everything, he's just really learning basic swimming yet. They were trying to get him to jump in the pool, which is why his teacher is giving him a talk.... I think he insisted on having the life jacket on. He did jump off the diving board on a day I wasn't there... our babysitter told him if he did it, she'd give him $5. Anyone who knows Evan, knows that money talks. All in all, I think they did well.
