"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences." — Gordon B. Hinckley

Swimming Lessons


Well, for the last 9 days the girls have really enjoyed swim lessons.
They both have done really well. Jolene jumped from the side this year.
I know to some it's not much, but to us it's HUGE!!

She liked it so much she did it a couple of times!!

On the last day of lessons the parents get to come in and
watch and take pictures. I love this day, to be up close

and to let them know right after they do their thing that,

"yes I was watching and yes I'm proud!" Jolene's class got to go

off the diving board. Jolene loves to go off, but has her teacher

lower her down and then drop her in to the safe arms of the

teacher in the water.
This year she kept saying she was going to go off
the diving board all by herself!! The first 2 times
she was lowered in, then I asked her if she was
going to do it herself? She smiled and said,
"I guess." And she did!! It was great!! She did it three times by herself!
I am so very proud of how far she has come!!



Raychel has really enjoyed being in the big pool,
She learned so many new strokes and how
to put them together. The class learned how to
dive or at least start to dive.
