Little Fishy

Kailyn has been fishing around in the water for the past few weeks. She just loves swimming lessons.

She has perfected the underwater hand stand. Now to get some endurance going in her swimming and she will be all set.

She is doing great. She has jumped of the diving board a few times. Yesterday she practiced swimming in the deeper water without her floatation belt.

Way to go, girl!

Get Movin'

With springs arrival and Tae Kwon Do's completion, the search began for good exercise outlets for our family. One option was a basketball hoop for our driveway.

Last Saturday, Poppy and Marlin volunteered their muscles to dig the hole and cement the base of the pole into the ground. Thank you so much, guys! Javin was right there helping as well. He gave the post hole digger a new name: the tweezers!

Wednesday night Joel and Gary tackled the assembling of the adjustable backboard. They were so faithful and diligent about it. It was finally completed at 10:45 pm. Javin was right out there shooting some hoops in the dark!

We are looking forward to lots of fun and exercise around the hoop.

Speaking of exercise, Kailyn started another round of swimming lessons this month. She is doing good and enjoys being in the water. She was so proud that she was able to show another kid in the water how to do his swimming. So she is going straight to teaching it seems. Her swim teacher better watch out, Kailyn might steal her job.

And I have been swinging my hips at my Zumba exercise class. It is a blend of latin and hip hop dance moves that make for a good workout. I wish I could go to the class that Kelly helps teach but Berlin is so much closer, so I'll make do.
