More Swim Meets

6/8/17:

I was terrible about getting pictures at this meet!  I've got to do better!!


Oh the junk!!  He gave his Sprite can ears with the Ring Pops!



6/15/17:

In this meet, S earned her iron man  for the year, meaning she has swam all events successfully!  Her IM was beautiful and she did long free for the first time in a while as well.  C rocked out his freestyle, learning not to look around as he swam(yay!!) and nailed his breaststroke without getting DQ'd for the first time!  So proud of them!  And glad I got my good camera out for at least one of the meets!

Both kids did really well on their backstroke at this meet, shaving off a several seconds each!  Funny story, C's backstroke timecard was mixed up with the boy that was also swimming in his lane in a different heat.  Well, yes, C did improve by a lot, but when I got his ribbon the next day I knew something wasn't right when it said he had improved by 20 seconds!!  Buhahaha!  I told the coach's and the other little boy's mom about the issue, but there really wasn't much they could do about it as far as official SAIL results were concerned!  We all got a good laugh out of it, though!





Because of the mix-up, he is ranked #5 in the county!!
6/29/17:

This was our last meet!  S improved her IM time by about 5 seconds, but other than that, it wasn't a stellar meet for the kids - they can't all be great, right?  It rained off and on throughout the meet as well and then just before they had their final free relays, the bottom dropped out and we got drenched!!  I mean buckets came down!!!  None of us were sad to see the last few events cancelled as we got in the car wet and shivering for a 45 minute drive home!!

It's funny, they were not together when I took these pictures, but
from their posture and facial expressions, you can tell that it was
just one of those meets!


Now, on to Divisionals in a couple of weeks!
