I AM SO PROUD OF MY KIDS!!!!!!!

 

 

Yup that is all of them. I know !can you believe I have so many?  the team is twice as big this year as it was last year. I LOVE TO SEE THAT. those two men you see up there took the LARGEST group of NONSWIMMERS and turned them into Athleats. it is the coolest thing I have ever seen. these little guys… including my oldest Dfly. started lessons with these two in june/july of last summer. and I want you to see what he did. one of the 8 and under. she took FIRST place in Sprint champs. another one that just learned int eh 11-12 year old group he took FIRST in sprint champs. broke 6 records off our wall and got enough meddels to spin your head this year. and he only started swimming in December. He took another 8 and under and she got 3rd in sprint champs. we have 6 kids qualify for Junior Olympics. 4 OF THOSE WERE JUST LEARNING WHAT THE STROKES ARE!

My niece got her FIRST honor time…..

 

My daughter did the same……

 

My son…. He got 4 bronze meddle times. and he was tricked out with some bling there.

 

My TFLY even gave his brother some love a tap of hands as he went by to get a trofie. he fights so hard to get the times he gets. He is a runner that is for sure. But wonderful to see brotherly love there!

 

we looked up T~FLY’s bronze time from last year in the 50 back. he beat that timet his year by 7.12 seconds. it is amazing what these two men are able to do. I KNOW they will not see this. but I want them to know

THANK YOU COACHES!!!!!!!!!

You two are amazing. you are even kind enough to whip us old ladies into shape. I know that the kids have a lot to do with what you are able to get out of them. But if it wasn’t for you two making it so fun. I know that these kids wouldn’t be were they are now. I also know that you two are going to take them far in the swimming world. Just want you to know from this momma….. you two are the best.

Thank you for everything you do. and coach W. I am sending this to your wife. I hope she makes you come look at your pictures. LOL
