It's fun to play at the Y.M.C.A!!

We have been toying with the idea of a family membership to the Y for a long time. We finally bit the bullet last week and are so glad we did!! Besides getting a great member discount on the swimming lessons, volleyball/BBall camps, and other activities we were planning on doing this Summer (roughly 50%!) they have SO much to do!! Our new house is only about a 5 minute drive (one of our reasons for holding out before... distance!) They have 4 swimming pools including a toddler area, lap pools, and super fun water slide. The boys are in hog heaven!! I'm pretty sure Benji is part fish, he has already decided he's going to take all the swimming lesson "levels" so he can jump off the high dive. Oh dear! Their lessons start on Tuesday and they are SO excited!! The girls have been having fun using the equipment and are taking their first spinning class this week. Taylor and I are trying Zumba this weekend (Yikes!) Cole and Ben are dying to try the rock climbing wall, and they even have tons of preschool programs and activities for Max to do this Fall when his playmates (aka brothers!) return to school. The Y has really saved my bacon this week since the boys sampled the neighborhood pool last week they've been clamoring to go non-stop... the weather has NOT been good enough for Mama to get in that cold water so we just jump in the car and hit the Y! The best part is I can get them to do all their chores lickety split first!! Yay!!
