It's Swimmin Time!

Emma has learned how to swim and is doing an amazing job!












First thing she learned was how to hold her breath (very important). Once she got the hang of that she start getting comfortable staying under and moving around in the water. We swim a lot at the Lifetime fitness in south Austin and Dick Nichols Metro Park so she is getting alot of practice.

One day about a week or so ago Emma and I were at the Deep Eddy Pool (Freezing and fun all in one!) and she picked her feet up and doggy paddle her little body straight over to me. Now i am not saying she is Janet Evens and ready to break any Olympic records, but for being 3 she is kickin butt and taken names!!!

I guess we all have the choice to sink or swim and my little lady bug decided she was going swim.










Now its my turn, being in the real estate business you have to be up for the challenge every day. I have the chance to talk to people all day about real estate and get all types of perspectives on our "Market". The truth of the matter is, it is not easy, we have challenges in the real estate industry. Their are a ton of things that can be percieved as road blocks, challenges, problems, issues, whatever your word is, it is about managing those challenges (my word) and fighting your way up stream. I am commited to my mission and to my industry and look forward to the challenges ahead and the opportunities that will be created!!
