The girls were pretty jazzed about their second swim meet. They were up and at ’em bright and early that Saturday morning. Naturally, we showed up at the wrong pool (along with several others) and scurried over to the right pool just in time for warm ups. 

They were legit with their races written on their arms in sharpie…that’s how the cool kids do it, you know. (I actually did  not but got schooled by my hip children). 

I don’t know if we just got lucky at our neighborhood pool for the last meet or if this meet was just chaos….I’m going to go with the latter. It was just nuts! There were three teams competing and it was crowded and not very organized. The kids had to wait for their heat in the parking lot. Not many of the parents felt comfortable just sending the kids out to the parking lot so the it was crowded out there. The kids without parents were running around the cars and creating havoc. It was nuts. Nuts I tell ya. 

Both girls did well, but it was a little too chaotic for their liking. It was also looooong. We were at the pool for almost 6 hours. 

They did it. A few more blue ribbons under their belts. 

I’m so impressed with their swimming and I get such a kick out of watching them. 

After swimming we headed straight to Water World for a birthday party. Karsen is a friend from school and was sweet enough to invite both girls to her Water World party. I stuck around too and we rode lots of water slides before the rain hit. It got super cold, super fast, but that did not slow these ladies down. 

I received a water proof camera as an extension of my birthday gift (40 was pretty great. Feeling spoiled). The girls are having a blast with it and love taking underwater snapshots of each other. 

That’s a lot of swimming for one day! 

And it’s a rap for these pruney little ladies!
