Swim Lessons Session1

Ruby had her first day of swim lessons for summer 09:

Brett, her instructor, also happens to be Ben's best friend and the best instructor ever.  The thing about Brett, is he is all about tough love.  The first couple days is usually pretty rough for the kids, then they catch on to the program and grow a lot in two weeks.
The three musketeers.  Wyatt, Finn and Ruby 09

Swim Lessons 2008 with Wyatt, Ruby, Finn, & Porter

And to get Ruby into Swim lessons i had to wait in a VERY long line

Brea residents have the craziest tradition of camping out to get their kids enrolled in swim lessons. Some people sleep in line over night others just cruise over around 3am. This is the line, and I got there at 6ish: The line does a huge S.  From the from the front of the Building, around the side, in front of the blue gate, up the side walk and down the main street.

Us waiting in line.  Actually turned out to be a lot of fun, With Amber, Ruth, Jill, Sarah, Heather W., Kelley, few others

Heather's First Year to experience the madness

line down the main street... It just kept going.  We were 200th in line.  Worth the wait.

I miss swimming lessons in Brea. The girls took 3 years there and they are the best swimmers ever! I love Brett's "tough love". It totally works! They have the best swimming program. But I can't believe the wait! I would do it though.

I agree! Definitely worth the wait! I wish we could have done this first session with you. Kinda sucks, especially seeing the cute pictures of the buds. But oh well!
