Trying something new


The girls have only been taking swimming lessons for 2 summers now (plus a bit in the winter months) and they are doing well.  Mori was given the opportunity to try her first real swim meet last weekend in La Grande.  She participated in the 100 freestyle, the 50 breaststroke and the medley relay.  We were so proud of her.  She was most nervous about the 100 freestyle because of its length, but she did great.  She said she almost cried on the 4th turn, but she made it.  Grandma and Grandpa Isaacson came to watch, as well as Auntie Michelle and her 4 kids (in town from Salem).  Mori has now decided that swimming is her second favorite sport and she looks forward to learning more and challenging herself in future swim meets.  (6/28)
