MEET OF CHAMPS

So, this past weekend was Meet of Champs for our Swim League, The Memorial Spring Branch Swim League.  Both boys qualified and were expected to do well.

The meet was held at the Spring Branch ISD Natatorium, yes, my old stomping grounds, so it was fun for me to see them swim there again.

When it was all said and done, Josh came home with 2 4th places (after a devastating - to him mom - goggle mishap in the 25 Freestyle) in the 25 Free and Free Relay.

Jake won the 25 Free, the 25 Breaststroke and came in a very close 2nd in the Fly.  His relays were 2nd and 6th.

At the team party the next night both boys took home their Age Group MVP trophy, Josh in 6 & Under and Jake in the 7 & 8.

It was a very successful season and it is sad to be done with swim team, but kind of a relief as well.  Mom needs a break!

WAY TO GO BOYS!

Just Plain Funny

Let's just say, I have no clue what the heck is going on here.  Jill is wearing Jake's underwear on her head (she loves sticking her head through the holes).  Fortunately it came out of the clean laundry in the basket behind her.  She is also carrying the mosquito spray that I coat the yard with to make it safe to play in.  And lastly she is pushing her popper.  All while wearing her swimsuit.  I wish I knew what was going on in her head at this moment!

Swim Meets

Jake and Josh had their first swim meet of the year last night.  It was against Memorial Forest at Plaza Oaks.  The Piranhas won 600.5 to 587.5!  The boys were very excited and both had great nights.  Below are some videos of them swimming their hearts out!

Chillin' in Cypress

So, my Aunt and Uncle have a really fun pool in their backyard and the kids beg all the time to go swim there.  So, since school is finally out and Kiki and Owen were headed in from Austin, we all met at Auntie Karen and Uncle Steve's house to go swimming. 

It was a hot day and the pool was nice and cold.  We ended up staying 3 hours!  We are a little pink, but had a blast.  Here are some pics.
