this weekend.....

Trevor had his second swim meet ever, and it was big.....tons of kids, in fact so many kids there was not a seat in the house and the meet took two days.  It was a little overwhelming all around, especially for a kid who is having trouble keeping track of his stuff these days.  We've lost a couple of bathing suits, and goggles and have gotten VERY upset.  .  Luckily we had enough allowance saved to cover it.    T Swam seven events.  Breaststroke is his favorite, and he even qualified for the states in that event (not bad for his second meet ever!). His butterfly is coming along nicely as well.    All the swimmers are amazing, it takes so much hard work to get good in this sport.   Plus the meet was at my old stomping ground.  The pool I swam in all through Jr.  High and High School.  It was amazing to see the swimmers that I swam with names still up on the board, and to walk through those hallways, It made me just hold my breath a little bit.  And I'm so proud of my little swimmer, I love that he's getting a skill he can take with him his whole life....
