I forgot to post the 3 (only 3!!) pictures that were sent to me from the Las Vegas trip Madison took with her friend Charlotte and her Dad and her Grandma. They did it up with a couple Cirque shows, shopping and lots of good food. Unfortunately everywhere they went people assumed they were college girls looking for somebody to by them drinks! Especially in the hot tubs :(
Sure, the new OV pool is open... Lucy got her pic in the paper for the grand opening
And then we helped out hosting the 8 and under Championship meet and Lucy made sure every kid got to their race and was in the right heat and lane. She did not like the circus theme though.
Here are the real clowns...
But more importantly... the pool at 9855 N La Reserve Place is now open for business.
The kids are ready except the weather isn't helping them out any.
It is cold and rainy after being 75 and sunny all week.
A couple sessions were delayed but nobody had to swim in the rain. Rain brings rainbows though!
Prelims were swum in the morning with top 16 making it back to finals at night.
Makes for a LONG weekend!
Wyatt's individual races:
I took a few videos of Wyatt. I forgot my memory card so all I had was iphone.
Wyatt also swam 4 relays with these characters.
Lucy's individual races:
The girls were swimming on the other side of the pool so you can barely see her in lane 3.
Lucy also swam 4 relays with the 11-12 year old girls. Here she is with her relay team and the 13-14 girls relay team waiting behind the blocks to race.
Even with our tiny team we still finished 10th overall
Despite the weather the kids did great and cheered each other on all weekend!
This was the last short course meet in the 11-12 age group. Next year they age up!
