Swimming Class

Evan's been taking swimming lessons for the last 8 weeks at the UVA aquatic center. Miss Logan was a great teacher, and Ev just loves the water.  Even better, we found out at the first class that his good friend Caroline was signed up too!  They had a blast splashing, floating, and jumping together.  Bonus for us when one or the other was nervous to try something new - a little peer pressure was the perfect solution.  I had a tough time picking my favorite shots from their last class, so here are a bunch.  You'll see Ev showing off his floating on front and back, kicking, bubbles, jumping (and dunking), grabbing rings, and his favorite: playing basketball at the end of class.  This was the second time around for the kids in this class - last year they were too young to do many of the actual skills.  But this time, both Evan and Caroline passed!  After a summer at the pool, we'll see if they're up to the next class without parents in the water too.  Congrats, swimming grads!
