Swim Team Party

Our swim team had their end of the season party tonight. The kids got to play with their swim buddies, eat dinner, and receive trophies.

Last Swim Meet

Tonight, we had our last swim meet. I am ready for the volunteering part to be over, but I must admit that I have thought this was a great experience. I especially loved how much my kids have improved. Lexi is shaping up to be quite a good swimmer. The coach even asked her to fill in for the last leg of the 14 year old relays. The team was slow, so she was the last one in the water, but she swam her heart out. You can watch the video below (dark one). I am kind of excited to see what she can do next year.

Back to the new park

The new park was so amazing that the kids wanted to come back again today. They focused most of their time on building the steps with the blocks.

New Park

There is a new park in our town. We decided to go check it out today. They loved it.  

Swimming in Jeans

We were up late for the swim meet and back at it this morning for practice. Coach Erin told them to wear jeans today to swim in. They think it is fun and different. This is actually a way to strengthen them.

Fourth Swim Meet

Guess who finally agreed to try a swim cap??? It even shaved off some time on her heats. This girl is becoming quite the swimmer. I think next year will be her year. That will be when she is one of the older ones for her group.

Pool with Friends

This afternoon, I picked up Lexi & Jordan's friends and took them all to the pool. Heather is one of Lexi's best friends and Justin is one of Jordan's. Fortunately, they are brother and sister too.

Double Party

Avery & Savannah had a double birthday party today. I'm sure it is fun to have a sister that was born days apart. We always love going to their parties.

Swimming for Fun

We have been spending SOOO much time at swim team that we've been neglecting the fun swimming. Today, I took them to the neighborhood water park.
