Meet 1- B'way VS. Spotswood....

So the kids decided they wanted to do swim team this summer again, which I was very happy about.  It's such great exercise, not to mention Ethan and Alexis know almost all the kids in there age group from school, preschool, scouts, church AND tumbling.  AND I get to visit with all the moms and dads I wouldn't get to see otherwise!  Ethan and Alexis wanted to focus on their freestyle and backstroke this year....so 2 hours per day (AM and PM practice)...most days M-F we did.  Of course we missed some practices and some were cancelled, but otherwise, they were their and having a great time doing it! YAY SWIM TEAM!!! 
Their first meet was against Spotswood Dolphins on June 18th....all the meets were on Tuesdays, perfect b/c it freed up the weekends- No practice Sat/Sun! ;)
Ethan and Alexis did AMAZING!   Ethan with some friends Lee and Luke.... waiting for their events.....
