Since Travis and Tyrel deep cleaned their room yesterday, they thought we should have a day off today. We will finish it up on Thursday.
Trevin started swimming lessons today. He is struggling with the deep end of the pool. He gets nervous and then starts swallowing water. He actually does fine jumping into the deep end and swimming to the shallow end, but every time they want him to go from the shallow end to the deep end, he beelines for the side of the pool and only makes it about half way (to where the water is above his head) and then grabs the edge and works his way down from there. Hopefully by the end of lessons, he will overcome his fears and do better. It makes me nervous until my kids get over that fear. Tyrel was the same way. Travis has always been a fish. Once Tyrel got over his fear, he loves swimming and doesn't have any problems now. Trevin was excited to have Riley as his teacher again this year.
Tyrel's friend Keaton came up today. Travis drove Tyrel down to Keaton's. When they got bored there, they decided to ride bikes from Keaton's house to Elk Ridge. They were pooped, hot, and stinky when they got here. After they recuperated, they went and rode 4wheelers all afternoon. Keaton stayed for dinner and then they went riding some more and then came back and played video games.
Travis had a few of his friends over too. They watched TV for a while and then all headed to Spring Lake to catch toads once it got dark.
