Ella Loved Swimming Lessons!

Today was the day we'd been anticipating for a while now. It was the first day of swimming lessons.
Here's Ella chewing on her finger ready to head out to the University for her lessons.Daddy was out of town so Grandmaman was nice enough to come along to be our photographer. Not all pictures are focused but she did her best.
Here we are, waiting for lessons to start, for our okay to go into the pool
Here we are, getting Ella adapted to the water. And who ever told me the water at the University was cold, they must have been on crack.
Here we are, trying to have Ella do the star. She didn't like being on her back, none of the kids did.
Here she is trying to do the star on her belly, she loved that because she got to lean on Mommy.
Here she is chasing the ball.Here's Ella walking across the mat.
Here we are looking up for a picture.Still in the poolWe had a great time at lessons. Ella loved it. Some of the kids wanted out before the lessons were over but Ella would have stayed longer had she been allowed.
We can't wait for next Saturday for another lesson.

We were parked so far away they had wagons taking us to the grounds.Ella and Daddy petting a sheep.The Belangers with Sly and Ella. The Belangers decided to join us and ended up having a great time. I was scared they might think the fair was a little to hick for them. Emilie getting a balloon from the clown. Ange and Audrey on the merry-go-round.Daddy and L on the merry-go-round. Ella loved it, she went on it too many times for me to count.Audrey and Ella sitting in a tractor wheel.The fairgrounds at night. The Patry boys having cotton candy.Uncle Pete and Ella, he's letting her play with his beer can. Don't worry it isn't opened.Ella and Audrey sharing their first beer together. Who said they had to drink it? We didn't end up leaving until 9:30pm and the girls didn't complain once. They were real troopers. They did awesome.
The fair was unbelievable, the weather was awesome, the crowd was record breaking and it was just all in all wonderful.
The Belangers loved it and said they'd be back next year.
Hope all is well with everyone.
