Swim Lessons, Tennis and Golf

Summer always includes some swimming lessons and tennis at our house. This year Nora joined us for tennis which was nice for carpooling. Both Conor and Josie are doing great and really getting better each time they pick up a racquet. We love Whitworth for putting together such a great program.
Josie did swimming lessons this year and she is looking amazing! She is getting some strokes down, her dive is great and she really loves the water. Lincoln did a 30 minute lesson just to see how he would do. He is a little cautious, but not freak out cry if I get water on my face cautious. He loves the water with his life jacket and will be all ready for lessons in a few years. Funny thing happened on one of our swim lesson days. Lincoln would always play with his trucks while Josie swam and was happy waiting, it was time to leave so I told him to go put away the trucks and so he heads off. I look up just in time to watch him bounce into the shallow end of the pool. He was pushing his truck and just cut the corner a little close and toppled in. Clothes and all. We fished him out and he wasn't traumatized at all. He was more annoyed that his shoes and clothes were wet. It is a good reminder though to always keep your eye on those little ones around the water. We were lucky I was watching. It makes me giggle now looking back.
This summer we also were able to do a golf camp.  Conor learned a lot and met some good friends.  We were sad it was only a week.  The last day was a scramble where they played 9 holes and kept score.  I got to tag along and help with the scoring.
