Swimming Lessons & Ammon Days

One of the perks of living at grandpa's house is that he lives right by the local pool. So Sophie and all her cousins signed up for swim lessons at the end of July. Sophie's mommy-and-me class wasn't offered the same time as everyone else so we had to go at a different time. Unfortunately that pool is the temperature of a glass of ice water and 7 out of the 10 days we actually had class (cancelled twice) the temperature didn't even hit 80* which meant all the babies just cried the whole time and it was a lot less fun. Sophie didn't really learn a whole bunch, but she likes the water so she did pretty well. She still won't blow bubbles in the water which was my only hope for the class. We had fun playing in the pool for free so that works.



The first weekend in August is Ammon Days. They always have free breakfast, a bunch of booths, kids activities, and more free food. We walked over for breakfast and met up with the cousins. The girls all got their faces painted. Sophie learned "tiger arms" in swim lessons so she chose a tiger for face paint and Kira chose to match. Sophie sat pretty well for the lady and looked really cute all day. She impressed me when she scaled a huge inflatable on her own and slid down the slide multiple times. We came across a booth for dance classes and they actually offer a mommy-and-me class which Sophie and I start next week. It was a very fun and successful day.
