What a Difference a Life Jacket Makes!


With Aunt D (Cindy) and Uncle Ryan visiting, we invaded the Bearry's home and went swimming and had the best Evers family dinner ever - flank steak. Well, remember the kid who had to be bribed and threatened to participate in swimming lessons a few weeks ago? I bought Scott a little life vest at Target, and with that on he transformed into a fish! We were there for 3 hours, and the only reason Scott got out of the water was to go on the waterslide that of course dumped him back in the pool.


And Charlotte also turned a big corner... She also was not a star student at swimming lessons, but with Aunt Nancy's help, she went under the water a bunch of times and actually seemed to like it!



My cousin, Alisa, was also very creative with all her different ways down the waterslide:

After having SO much fun swimming, we are even MORE excited for Mom and Dad to build their sweet pool at the new house!

You had to bribe Scott, too, at swim lessons?

What is up with the swim lesson paranoia? I'm glad the lifevest is making him feel more secure. And it's a skill in itself to be able to swim with a lifevest on. Good work, Scott!
