Summer swim is one of my favorite seasons of the year. All four kids are on the same team cheering for each other and trying to swim their best. Swim season started out with a bang with a meet against Edgehill - a friendship meet. Eleanor and Jane were at camp and missed the meet but Rosie and Ben had a great time.
The girls' first meet was against Wellington:
Rosie made her first family dinner - mac and cheese, pizza rolls, and green beans.
Our favorite away meet is always Fords. Rosie and Jane got a few heat winner ducks and I think Ben and Eleanor each got one, too.
Kingsmill was our last home meet of the season:
Greensprings had lots of the kids' friends:
Kingswood was the only meet we lost! And we only lost by 3 points. It was a tough meet.
Champs was a great meet this year. Eleanor didn't swim because she was on a church retreat, but the other three did.
Rosie after PRing in breast:
Antelope, Bonnie, and Riser came to watch!
At the clerk waiting for fly:
Everyone came away with a ribbon from champs (which means they scored in the top 16). The next day we had an end of season party. Coach Dillon dyed his hair pink because the kids won Champs. Ben made little drawings for each coach and Rosie and Jane made bracelets and key chains:
We've have luckily had the same coaches three years in a row, which is incredible: Dillon, Georgie, Niamh, Louisa, Holly, Brooke, and Elly.
The 7/8 year olds:
The 9/10s:
I didn't get a picture of the 11/12s because Eleanor was on the SM retreat. Then the hair dying happened!
Jane and Rosie with Rosie's favorite coach, Holly. It was a really fun season and we are sad to see the end of it!
