The Nicholson girls take a huge leap

Holly felt so swish in her flotation jacket, that she couldn't wait to try it out.


Swimming like a real pro.




You may remember Skye the Lab who hated swimming, after watching how much fun her sister, Holly, had she decided to see for herself. She was not as confident as Holly but she gave it her best shot.


Ready for a game after their swim.
