my first swim

When I think of my childhood, instantly water, swimming, swimming and more water come to mind.  For instance... I began swimming lessons when I was around 4 or 5 because my dad wanted me to be able to swim if, God forbid, we fell out of the fishing boat into the lake.  At the beginning everything went as normal, I went to swim lessons and I was done in 30 minutes.  Then "dooms day" as my dad may refer to it came when the swim team coach suggested I join the Rapid City Racers.  From there, the fishing ceased and the swim meets took over.  Looking back I think we may have went out on the boat about 3 times after that day.  I can sort of understand the dooms day reference (oops!).  Due to my complete love of water I wanted to start my little girl on the right foot, enjoying some summer fun in her miniature pool.  As you will soon see, things did not go quite as planned.....

Lets Get Ready!
Sunscreen...CHECK

Happy as a Clam... CHECK

Then the pool time comes

Ok, this might not be too bad

Um, I am still not sure mom and dad

Oh wow this is nice in the 95 degree weather.  Thanks mom and dad.

JUST KIDDING YOU MEAN, MEAN, UGLY PARENTS...THIS IS TORTURE!!!!!
Needless to say we didn't last long :)  Next time will be better, right?!?!

That swimming suit is the most adorable thing EVER! I wish they made it in my size...on second thought, no I don't. I would not look near as cute as Miss Madison!
