My oldest and youngest looking cozy. We all adore Beatrix. This is at Mesa High, our favorite free lunch spot. We like to go right after Rupert's swim lesson and Zara's swim team at Kino.
Love these goofballs. :)
Thursdays are our swim meet days. This week Mesa High hosted. The kids get there at 5:15 and the meet starts at 6:00. Zara is in the 5-6 age group, we have no swimmers in the middle age group, and Elliot and Avery are in the 9-10 age group. This week's swim stroke was breast stroke. If the swimmers don't swim correctly they are disqualified and get a participation ribbon instead of 1-8 place ribbon. None of our kids disqualified, although Zara wasn't consistent. We are so proud of how hard they push themselves and do their best!
Third place!
Sixth place!
They each got two ribbons. One for their individual race, and one for relay. They have to qualify for relay earlier in the week to compete and Elliot was the only one that qualified this week, so we were surprised when Zara and Avery ended up doing relay as well! Elliot has qualified all four meets, this was Avery's third relay to swim, and Zara's first! How is Elliot a foot taller than Avery! They are a year closer in age than the girls are. :)
Beatrix was so content the first half of the meet before crying. She did so good, just a little hungry.
