Swimming Lessons and Seven Peaks

We decide for something fun and different that we would get season passes to Seven Peaks this year. None of the boys were playing baseball, and "gee mom, we have to do something this summer"... It was fun and Ammon and Matthew really enjoyed it. It was a bit of a pain to take Jordyn though because she didn't like getting wet. Jenn and Michael were working everyday, so it was pretty much Jayme and I taking the littler kids.

Then came swimming lessons. After the first lesson, Jordyn was putting her face in the water, going down slides, and letting her teacher help her float. Granted, he was pretty cute, but this was huge!!

Matthew wasn't a very good swimmer, and I haven't been a very good mom as far as swimming lessons goes. I know that they have to know how to swim, it's never been an option, but I haven't pushed them as much as I should have. Matthew did great though, and by the end of class, he was swimming across the pool!!


This is Jayme and Jennifer on the Boomerang. The slide is basically a half-pipe, and you go back and forth until you stop. I love this pic!!

On the last day of swimming lessons, they pretty much got to play in the park without anyone else there. Because there were so few people, they got out a couple of surfboards for the wave pool. Here's Matthew, Hang Ten!!


We never really saw Ammon at the park, he was always hanging with one of his buddies or being chased by some teenie bopper girls. Seven Peaks is teenie bopper heaven!! Michael only went once or twice, and I'm still trying to get a refund for Dennis' season pass. It was never used. :(
