Swimming Lessons

  This past week we have started to take swimming lessons. This year we decided to stay in town to take them so that we wouldn't have to travel to Brigham every day. I really likes the way this lady teaches more than the Brigham pool. She is already getting Ethan to swim under the water. He is not a big fan of getting his face wet and is afraid of sinking. I'm really impressed by what has happened in just the last week. Daisy loves the water, but is not so sure about sitting on the step by herself. They are both doing great and I really like having them both in swimming lessons. Here are some pictures of the past week. At the end there is a video of both them swimming. Hope you enjoy all that you see!
First day didn't get any pictures at swimming and the kids wanted to practice in the tub. What crazy kids!!

Father's Day/ A full Month

  We were luck to spend the whole Father's Day with a wonderful dad and he was able to not go into work at Walmart. We are so grateful to have such a great dad that would make such big sacrifices so that his family has a better life. We love you Dad and wouldn't want anything less than you!!!! 
So a lot has happened in the past month and we have really enjoyed all that we have been doing! We try to keep busy with Steve working so hard down south. We've had a few visitors and we have been able to go out to enjoy the warm weather. In the next few days we are hoping to get to the pool and enjoy the fun water, plus we have a pass from last summer so it will be free!!!! Here are some pictures of the fun we have had this past month.

This picture reminds me of Daisy when she was this old. Oh my how much they are going to look a lot alike.
