Lifeguard Training!



Breanna is now officially an "Ellis trained Lifeguard". She has spent the last 3 days in training for her new job as a Lifeguard/swim instructor for the City of Grand Junction. She was already a Red cross trained lifeguard, but with the Ellis program she gained a lot of advanced lifesaving knowledge and learned different techniques .


Ellis trained lifeguards are used by all of the Major theme parks across the US. Disneyland, Disneyworld, Six Flags etc...


She did well with the training, got to spend a lot of time in the water and that is right up her alley. She had her drug test today, so I think she is all set. The pools where she will be working are fairly large. One is outside with kiddie pools and a huge water slide. And one is inside with a water slide and jacuzzi.


I will eventually get pics of her at work, and post them.


By the way, IRS rebate checks are on their way! Breanna has already received hers, we wont get ours until the last issue. I am thinking about MAYBE trading off my Grand Cherokee for a smaller SUV that will get better gas mileage. We traded Dana's Grand Cherokee in last November for a 2007 Ford Escape, I LOVE this car!! I am thinking I want one too! We will see... time will tell.


Here is a pic of some of the training Breanna went through. This is not a picture of her class.

Glad Bre got the training done. Wow, think I'd rather lifeguard at those places than go in Navy LOL. Just think of all the eye candy! Well, duh, there is eye candy in Navy but not half dressed LOL

David just started dating a nurse and SHE works in the ER...uh and she's also like 28? I met her yesterday and it was like...there's a "woman" in my house and not a "girl". LOL
