This spring I signed Taneal and Camie up for the local swim team. We haven't done anything like this before, but I've heard great things about it. It started the last week of April and goes through the end of June. Practice is Tuesday -Friday in the evenings and now that school is out it will be Tues- Friday in the mornings . Each Saturday is a meet that begins around 6:30am and usually end around 2pm. Taneal and Camie are in different age categories so their practices are at different pools with the time overlapping. Danielle and Spencer don't seem to mind because during practices they get to play at the park next to the pools. And thanks to friends who also have their children on the team, we have been able to rotate who goes to which pool minimizing all the running back and forth between pools.
The girls have done so well! I was sure Camie was going to get kicked off the team within the first week because she forgot how to swim from last year. But, she surprised me and remembered and has done really well. Taneal is a very fast swimmer and really likes the practices. I'm just so impressed with how well my girls know how to swim. They both swim better then I do! And, we joined a team that has won every meet!

I think Camie asctually posed for this picture during her relay!
