Molly's last T-Ball Game

Molly had her last tee ball game tonight.  She had a few practices and six games.  She understood the game more each week.  She was very timid at first....but by tonight, she was running after the ball and even hit the ball without the tee!  Great job, Molly!!!  We are VERY PROUD of you!!!



Molly's Swim Lessons!

Molly finished her two weeks of swim lessons (the same two weeks I worked at Loras Sports Camp).  She went with Lynnie (our daycare provider), who takes all her daycare kids that are old enough to lessons every day!  LOVE IT!!!  Molly did great....and enjoyed her swimming lessons....and she passed onto the next level too!!!!  WAY TO GO MOLLY!!!
Love that smile!!!!
 Molly streamlining....or how they taught her....gliding!
 Swimming freestyle....love that her face is in the water and her arm looks good.....we might have to work on her kick....
 No goggles....
 ....but she is ok with it!
(She would rather have googles, but they didn't want her to)
 Getting thrown by one of her teachers!
Playing a game!
 Getting lifted into the water in the deep end off the diving board.....she said she was too scared to jump.
YEAH MOLLY!!!!
You passed onto the next level!
