Swim Lessons for the Girls!

On July 6th, the girls all started swim lessons with Suzy. She is a teenager in our neighborhood who just graduated from high school and teaches swim lessons. She does private and semi-private lessons for really good prices at the Ivory Ridge pool (a private pool not too far from us). My girls loved her instantly! They felt totally at ease in the water because of swimming at the Gormans a few days before, so they were ready to go for it with Suzy. So glad!

Taylor and Jessica did a semi-private lesson (just the two of them together). It worked out really well for them. Alyssa took a private lesson to really work on her swim techniques for swim team. It helped a TON!! I am so glad we did it for all 3 of them. The look on Jessica's face says it all!
And of course, Taylor sticks her tongue out, even when she's trying to swim!
Taylor always opens her mouth, its kind of funny. She enjoyed learning though, just doesn't like to put her face in that much. Jess on the other hand, loved it and just went for it.
So proud of how much they learned and how happy they were while they were doing it. Much more comfortable in the water now.
