We put Aidan in lessons again this year with Miss Shelley (who he adores) and I'm glad we did, just for the refresher and getting his confidence back up - he did GREAT!! He had his last lesson today (finishing 4 weeks @ 3 days/week) and this might have been our very last lesson, ever! After 5 summers I think we can say both kids are officially strong swimmers :). He's now jumping off the board and swimming freestyle across the pool, and she worked on backstroke a lot with this class too. She introduced some skills for breast stroke & butterfly, mainly learning the kick styles for those. He hasn't mastered diving yet and she didn't focus on it, she said very few 6-yr-olds can even really do dives so it's not a big part of this 4/5's class. Anyway, got lots of pics and a few videos to show off :)......

| The first couple weeks of lessons had some chilly windy days! He was cold but didn't complain much. I was just glad it's NOT a "mom & tot" class.... ;) |

| Enjoying our family's last-day-of-lessons tradition: Slurpees from 7-11. It's a once-a year thing so they sure look forward to it! Still they each only drink about half. I'm there to help with the rest, don't worry. |
