Champs Swim Meet!

We had the league championship meet this morning at UNC's natatorium!  Friday night we had a team spirit night and decorated our cars, face painting, etc!  The kids were pumped up!  

  It was so fun and exciting to watch a meet there, especially since our favorite girl swimmer was competing!  We were so proud of Anna!  She swam her best and improved all of her times!  She came in first in her heat for freestyle and second place for both backstroke and butterfly!  What an awesome season! 




Coach giving her a quick tip!  Hit the wall hard!!!  There were sensors to stop the clock!





She was so excited to get first and waving her ribbon at us! 

Heading over for backstroke!


Getting in for backstroke!  The girls wrote all over their backs!

Summer so far...

We have been having a great summer!  Swim team, classes and playdates have been keeping us quite busy!  We have a "summer bucket list" of things to do that we have been working hard to accomplish!

Hilton Head Island

We just returned from a great trip to Hilton Head Island!  We loved it!  The island is so pretty with the marshes, trees with moss and beaches!  We had yummy meals and lots of fun!  The kids loved climbing to the top of the lighthouse,  horseback riding, and playing in the ocean of course!  We loved the calm tidal pools to play in each afternoon as well.
