Carson and Lego Robotics

Carson at Lego robotics. An after school program where the kids build, present a skit, present an idea to beter the world, and just have fun building robots with lego's. Lecture and gaining knowledge for the competition.

The game board. Each student and their partner has to build some type of lego object to go on the board. They are all bright students and were very excited to finally get their hands on the lego's.

Chargers run through!

Carson catching a punt return. He had a great game and even made an interception. I didn't get a picture of this but it was so exciting.
The team running through the Charger half time banner. A great and exciting thing for all football players to do. We tripped only one player this game.

Carlos swim lessons

Carlos is great with the back stroke. Him practicing.
Carlos learning how to dive. He is slowly getting it.

Carlos getting used to the water and posing for me.
Carlos used to love the water but after he turned 3 he became aware what water really was and doesn't like to swim much without his floaties. This year, I decided he needs to like water and learn how to really swim and build his confidence up again. He is liking it and doing quite well.
The video is to show you his improvements. He never even wanted to try to swim by himself. This is great progress.
