Swim Lessons

Lincoln & Anndra have been taking swimming lessons Tuesdays and Thursdays for the past 4 weeks.  The parents are allowed to take pictures the last day of class (which was today!), so I can finally post about this aquatic adventure.

Class starts on the stairs (L far left, A second to right).

Anndra warming up her legs with some splashy kicking.

Sorry pics are so blurry - must have had the camera on the wrong setting.

I love how Linc looked over at me just as I took this pic.

"Swordfish arms!"

Bubble, bubble, bubble - little motorboats!

Lincoln's awesome back-float.

The kids get to play with toys for the last few minutes of class - Anndra always digs in the bag for a dolphin puppet she loves.

And as long as we're showing pics of water fun, here are a few others from today when L & A were playing with their bath toys in the kitchen sink.

3rd Day of Skiing

Ski lessons

Parker and Lincoln went skiing for the very first time on Saturday.

Sorting all the gear the night before

Nervous son, excited dad

Busy day at Big Mountain

Waiting for teacher - can't wait to get started!

Trying out the bunny hill

Don't let the serious face fool you - he LOVED every minute of his lesson!

Another first - Anndra graduated from nursery and attended Sunbeams for the very first time.

Each child got a graduation cap and sun necklace

And here are two pictures she took of Lincoln after church - her photography skills are improving!

Cookie dance

Little sister loves to take CLOSE-ups!

Christmas 2012

Fun times during Christmas break:

Strolling with Grandma

Playing 'bell choir' with cousins on Christmas Eve

Sneaky girl - gobbling up the cookies that were supposed to be for Santa

A moment with the guys

Is L jumping over P? (If anyone is airborne in a pic, it's going to be Lincoln!)

So very, very HAPPY we got to see these friends!

Having a Utah connection makes long distance friendships more bearable

Lunch with cousins - hooray for them living so close to Gma!

Stomping, chasing, jumping through the snow, snow, snow

Can't quite keep up with the big kids, but still happy to be here

Sledding!

Boys got to see Great-Gpa and Great-Gma Gibbs

Matching smiles

Happy Christmas morning faces:
