I signed the boys up for their first season of Summer Swim Team. It was so good for them!!!
They had practice 3 mornings a week. We really enjoyed those mornings! They also swam in 5 meets. They swam in their first two meets while Lee and I were away in Hawaii. One Home meet and one in Grinnell. Then they swam another Home meet, a meet in Knoxville, and then the Conference Meet. Each meet they were beyond excited for and each meet they bettered their times. It was actually really amazing at how much they improved in just 2 months!
Tyler really improved his stroke and became a very good swimmer. Brady began the season hardly be able to make in one length of the pool and finished the season swimming one length with no problems at all. Both of them tried to swim new strokes in the meets and didn’t just stick to free style.
We were so very proud of their dedication and excitement this swim season. We look forward to next summer’s season!

Brady is the goofiest. Even when standing in line waiting for his event—he dances and couldn’t be happier! No nerves here!

We were sad for the season to end. But they learned so much and had so much fun doing it!

And one of the things that they got most excited about, I don’t have a picture of. These boys came home with so many ribbons from their events at the meets. They were always so proud and happy to receive ribbons for their outstanding swimming!!!
