Swim has started

Summer swim has started and this crew is excited! It's Ben and Rosie's first year on the team. Ben hasn't swam in a meet yet (though he can get across the pool, he's just too nervous to actually do it in a meet), but Rosie is loving her life. Eleanor and Jane are having a ton of fun and doing very well, too!


Rosie with her swim buddy, Violet.

Some mornings are a little chilly...

Rosie was SO excited about her rainbow (participation) and purple (7th place) ribbons.

Ben and Rosie playing with glowsticks (earrings) at a late night meet.

Rosie amazed at the stars (she almost never sees them because she's in bed way before this time of night usually.

The only time we've ever brought sweatshirts to a meet.

Littles cheering on the bigs for their races.

Lots of fun and games with friends while they wait for their races.

Talking himself into swimming (he didn't).

Rosie looking tiny but mighty!

Pre-meet, ready for swimming!

Maybe the only sport where they can all be on the same team at the same time...
