Brave Girls

We decided to try swimming lessons again this year. Like last year it started off a little rocky with the girls. They are like me and not the bravest in the water, but they are showing so much progress and I am very proud. They are finally getting used to having water in their faces and are even starting to like it! Today I was very happy and excited for them. They overcame some of their fear and jumped off the diving board with their teacher. This may seem small to some, but it is HUGE to us!! I am so proud of my brave girls. I am feeling a little brave too because I have been doing the mom and tot class with Grant at the same time as the girls. I have been wearing a swimsuit in public for eight days. Crazy I know. I do have to admit it is mostly moms and not very many of us, but it is much nicer to ease into swimsuit season, instead of hitting the large public pool. It has been helping me to feel a tiny bit more comfortable about going to Cancun and wearing a swimsuit. This is the pre-jump picture. It is hot in Arizona, but the wind was blowing and the pool is still pretty cold. They were good sports about freezing. (If you can truly freeze in 100 degree weather)

I only got the just before shot with Malia. Way to go girl!

Here goes Juliana. She is a little more cautious, so I was so happy to see her take the plunge. Can you see her holding on for dear life!

One happy girl!

Here is my cute man Grant, just chilling with a friend after swimming.

After swim lessons the girls like to sunbath for a minute to dry off. Say cheeseburger!

Best friends and sisters. I love it!!
