Let the Season Begin!


Swim season has begun with swim practice every morning from 9-10, meets every Wednesday night and every Saturday morning. Madison is really enjoying competing & meeting new friends. She just isn't too thrilled with swimming in freezing cold water however...I wouldn't be either. So far she has swam backstroke, butterfly, and breast stroke & does the freestyle relay. We love watching her cheer on her team members while she is standing on the block ready to dive in. She's placed in the top 3 in all of her races so far, but more exciting than that is watching her learn the technique to all the strokes. She has improved by leaps & bounds...we are so proud of her. Adrienne decided not to swim on the team this year but wants to try it next year when she will be 6. And Matthew, when not playing with the many ants down at the pool, enjoys yelling, I mean cheering for his big sister. One of these days I'll video her swimming for you all to see.
