Green Meadow vs SAC ---Kate's First Swim Meet

 All of the kids did a great job at the Green Meadow vs SAC swim meet! We were so, so proud of all of them and it was Kate's very first meet! Ever! She was so excited and couldn't wait to be a part of the whole thing. She warmed up with all the other kids and had no trouble swimming in the middle of the pool (not by the wall, like her usual practice lane). She jumped off the block during warm up and was a little upset that she wasn't able to go off the block during her races. She did so, so good! She cut her time by about 20 seconds and by the time she made it to the end of the pool (all of 1:15 later), the whole crowd was cheering her on! She climbed out and beamed me a huge smile and was so proud of herself. She did so good! She swam 25 meter freestyle and also swam in the Medley Relay (freestyle). Rachel swam the 100IM again, backstroke, the medley relay (backstroke) and the freestyle relay. She did awesome!! Noah swam 25 freestyle, 25 backstroke (he got 1st place!!), the medley relay (breaststroke) and the freestyle relay. They all did an amazing job. So very exciting watching all three of them compete in the meet.

Splash Pad!

 Good times at the Splash Pad! We always have fun when we hit the splash pad with Alex and Miss Renee. It seems like only yesterday it was our kids that were the little babies and toddlers running around enjoying the water... Now that they are bigger, they are still running around and enjoying the water. So. Much. Fun.

Green Meadow -VS- Gulf Park

 The kids swam great at the Green Meadow vs Gulf Park meet. Rachel swam her very first, ever, 100IM (100 meter Individual Medley). She was so excited and she did great!! I had tears in my eyes watching her finish the race. She climbed out of the pool with a smile on her face. So, so proud that she had the courage to even try it! She swam the 100IM, 25 meter breast, Medley Relay and the Freestyle Relay. Noah swam 25 meter backstroke, 25 meter breaststroke, Medley Relay (Fly) and the Freestyle Relay. He did awesome too! I was so, proud of both of them. Noah took first place in his breaststroke heat. All the kids swam hard and did well. Green Meadow won the meat by 5 points! Way to go, kids!
