Swimming Again

With our big move last summer, the kids didn't get to join swim team. They made it very clear that they missed it and we HAD to do it this summer. We found one close by that was reasonable to join and we got a few neighbors/ward members to join with us.
Hamilton Elks Swim and Dive Team
Caite and Chloe getting excited to swim.
Caite 25 meter freestyle (she's also great at backstroke and butterfly)

and a BIG smile for her BIG WIN 1st place!

Hayden getting ready
taking a little break before his big finish.
his BIG finish. The DQ didn't seem to bother him (see above picture), in his mind he came in 3rd. and that's all that matters. He's come a long way the past few weeks!
Isaac, not wanting his picture taken. I was timing when he swam so I didn't get pictures this time around, but he did great! He is also practicing with the dive team, but not going to compete this year.

As always, we are proud of our swimmers. They are working hard and getting faster every day. I love the discipline swimming gives our kids. I love the balance between individual and team work. It's a good thing for our kids.
