Swim Team season 2018

I say this every.single.year. I have a love/hate relationship with swim team. If we don't do it, summer would be super long. When we do it, summer FLIES by and we're left with only July. But, the kids LOVE it and I get to sit and chat with my mom friends every morning. This year, Adelyn moved up to 9/10s and James was once again with the 6 and under (you had to be 7 by June 1). I thought he was going to be upset since his buddies are all 7/8s, but he was just fine. He was always heat 1 and had mostly 1st place finishes. Adelyn had a lot of heat 1s and new events (50s and IMs). 

Here is Adelyn in a relay. She the one tagging in with a blue swim cap. She crushed it and was so fast!

Here is James doing 25 free style. He's in the 5th lane (or 2nd to last lane from the left). He finishes first!


 Celebrating a great swim meet with late night ice cream from Bruesters 
Both kids got Swimmer of the Week! (and this was James's birthday). On Fridays, it was just a 30 minute "Fun Friday" where they got donuts and played. 

 Last swim meet of the season
 This kid is ready!
 End of the Season swim party and cookout

 Adelyn did the county meet at Georgia Tech. It's so cool to swim in a pool where the Olympics were held in 1996. It's really pretty! Adelyn did a relay race with the 11/12 year olds and finished 1st in breaststroke (heat 1). SUPER proud of her!!
 Stephanie and I sat in the stands for hours with her 4 kids and James
 My girl headed out to swim
 Fay and Adelyn
 Chillin' in the pool! In between races, they would still be swimming!
 Of course, we had to hit up The Varsity afterwards!

Until next year.... swim team was a blast, but I'm glad it's over!
