Swim team

We have been keeping busy down here. Spring is just a very activity heavy time of year for us. Right now we have swim team, baseball, track, and band, not to mention NBA playoffs and all of the end of year school events, birthday parties, etc. We are loving it all, so I don't want to give the wrong impression. It is just busy! The thing I LOVE about swim team, aside from it being my thing, is that both boys and girls of all ages can all be on the SAME TEAM!!!!!! The practice times aren't all the same, but they are all in the same location and the practices are back to back. This is SOOOO great!

And you wouldn't believe it...all 4 of my children are on swim team this year!! I haven't posted much about it because I have had low blog posting (social media in general) motivation, but also I really didn't want to waste my time saying that Ava was on the team only to have to come back on here and say that she actually isn't. LOL! It was questionable for a week or two. This is their 4th week of swim team and we are getting into a groove and some days are easier than others, but overall they are having a great time.

It took Hannah getting in with her and swimming with her for the 2nd practice. The practice itself was fine, that initial joining the group was hard for her!

I wouldn't say I am home free quite yet--like kick back, read a book, and soak in some rays home free. She still insists on me walking the pool length with her while she swims. And since she runs the family, I listen! ;)

Caught Joel doing some fly... He also has been a great helper for Ava. He's swam with her a couple of times that has helped them both. He is struggling between being 6 and not being able to keep up with Calvin and the other older swimmers, but not wanting to go into the lanes with the other 6 year olds because they are beginners. Such a dilemma!
