What we did ALL June

Everyday in June these two woke by 7 to be at the pool by 8.000_0034

And once a week, they braved the heat and the sun,

To have a fabulous swim team season!

This was LM’s first year to really compete.  He swam in 4 of 5 meets and improved his performances every time.  His little 5 year old relay team came in 14 of 20 at the City Meet and he won his VERY FIRST colored ribbon.  This was a VERY big deal for him!  BG had a fabulous season.  Each week she competed with sixty to eighty 7-8 year old girls.  She won at least 2 ribbons at every meet and took the bronze medal in the backstroke at the City Meet.  She swam all 4 strokes at some point in the season, but she excelled in butterfly, back, and 50 m freestyle!

Through it all, I was most proud of their attitudes.  I never heard a complaint about the early mornings, the practices, or the meets.  They had a blast!
