Belated Christmas Gift Started Today

Every year I struggle with what to get Mike for Christmas. Since he didn't need anything, I wanted to get him something special that he could do with Colin; a little father-son bonding time. At first, I wasn't sure what they could together and then it hit me -- SWIMMING LESSONS!

Colin and Mike started swimming lessons through YMCA this morning. He loved it!!!! He is the youngest in the class but did wonderful. Some of the lessons are above his head but he enjoyed being in the water and was very concerned why two of the kids were screaming their heads off the entire lesson.

I didn't take a bunch of pictures because I was trying to video tape and enjoy the lesson but I did get a few.

Roll Call and instructions.

Kick. Kick. Kick.

'Jumpin' into the pool!

Using the kicking board.

The last 5 minutes of each lesson is free time. Colin wanted to play with the kick board.

I found you mom!!
