Swimming and Trek

Our Stake had the Youth Trek a couple of weeks ago and C.W. put in a lot of hard work planning it. It sounded like everyone involved had a good experience. Lots of rain and lots of mud! I hope that in the future C.W. and i can be Mas and Pas. Of course C.W. didn't have any pictures of himself. So here are a couple of pictures from his camera.

Ma Finn and Pa Finn are from our ward and i am sure they were great. They both are fun people.

Today was Jonathan's last swim "lesson". Maybe swim class would be a better name. Here are the skills we worked on:
blowing bubbles - which he never did
floating on his back - which he was not a big fan of
kicking - he did get the hang of this when the teacher would hold a rubber ducky to follow
climbing out of the pool - which he also became good at either to grab the rubber ducky or because i think he just got cold and wanted out

Usually at the end of the lesson we would dunk him just so he would get used to the water a little more. So when we took the picture he was really ready to get out.

I think we will wait a little longer to put him back in any swim lessons but i am glad that he had this experience with the water. It was fun!
