Time Trials

This is where we start the season.  I am so proud of my kids.  I would never been able to swim like them.   The twins are not ready to go yet but maybe by the end of the season.   

Swim my little Otters, swim!

Not Another Reaction

Poor Sugar.  At the party she was planning for the Otters salsa was served.  Unfortunately for Sugar it was cross contaminated with shellfish.  Poor thing, we were off to ER again.  She did have a visit from her favorite people as we waited.  Thank God she was ok.  

Otter Party Before Time Trials - The Season Begins

 The night before time trials is supposed to be a fun night for the kids.  It reminds them to keep their heads up and put their feet in the water.  It is a night that they celebrate all the progress they have made as swimmers while also remembering to have a little fun.

 Sugar is the best coach ever.  She makes sure every has a blast!

 Sugar made sure that the atmosphere was party like for the young swimmers.

Well then there is Possible, she takes life way too seriously!  Come on girl loosen up a little.

Twin Beauties

Twin Adorable on the left and Twin Beautiful on the right.  These two are best friends.  They are always playing together.  Often we find them fighting but within minutes hugging and playing again.  I so enjoy watching this bond that they have.  The rest of us want to be close to someone like they are.  I suspect the complete closeness to God that we long for is what I see with these two.  Their love is complete and their joy is immeasurable.  They do not get along all the time but it sure is a cool relationship to watch.  

Twin Picnic Poolside

Princess always makes sure that the twins are ready for practice.  She packs snacks, bottles and clothes.  The twins practice and then camp out and wait until the other kiddos are finished in the pool.  I had to snap a few shots one afternoon.  The twins were just too cute!  I can't believe my precious five year olds are growing up so fast.

Mom's Night Out

We had another fun night!  We always do.  I am blessed to have all these friends.  Getting out of the house once a week with the other mom friends is a life saver.

Silly Pictures

My camera was left around again, and left alone .  .  . this is what I found.
