I have few words to truly capture how grateful I am to you, the students I am lucky enough to work with, and for all you bring to my life. But you know me by now. Even when I say there are few words, I always manage to find a whole heck of a lot … Continue reading

Swimcrest Swimming Silliness.
So much fun swimming happening here lately. Have I mentioned that I love my job?
Mid-Summer Swimcrest Swimming Fun
So much quality swimming these past two weeks. Open water training, blowing bubble learning, triathlon prepping, friend hanging, Grandma time fun having, and a whole lot more. It’s been a good one. Hope you are having some great water time too!
This happened yesterday
At his second lesson, a previously fearful 11-year-old (as in the day before kind of fearful)did this. And it was awesome. And I can’t wait to see what he does next.
This week at Swimcrest
In all honesty, it’s the last few weeks at Swimcrest. Good things are happening. Some learned to be buoyant and let go of their fears about the water.

Just a typical Swimcrest Tuesday.
Just your typical Swimcrest Tuesday. 7:30 to 8:30 – Client #1 who makes me giggle like crazy and who was sporting THIS fabulous swim cap this morning and who swam more than she ever has before. (Clearly, the cap makes ALL the difference.) 10:00 to 11:00 – Client #2 – Breaststroke, freestyle, and his longest … Continue reading
Swim Swimmy Swim Swim – and the best birthday cake ever
Lots of great swim moments here recently. I’ll let photos speak for themselves. A little noodle horseback riding is always a good thing too. And I promised some shots of the best birthday cake ever. Really, my lovely husband could not have done better than this. And the topper? He and the rest of my … Continue reading
