Swim Team
















The kids are having a great time on the View Harbour swim team again this summer. Everyone is improving their times. Tanner and Connor went head to head in the 25m freestyle and Connor shaved off so much of his time that Tanner won by only 1 sec! Wow, that's a big improvement from his last year's first race. Way to go Tanner and Connor! When he touched the wall and saw that he got 2nd place instead of the usual 4th,5th, or 6th he couldn't contain his excitement as he yelled "I got 2nd?! Only my brother beat me?! I got 2nd!" Sydney and Jared got to compete in the IM as they combined their heats at the last meet. Sydney looked like she was going to take him as she had a good lead at the butterfly. But Jared pulled ahead on backstroke. Then we thought she might catch him on breastroke but it wasn't meant to be. She was only 3 sec. behind him though, beating her personal best by 9 sec. Way to go Sydney! Trey and Allie are also improving their times each race and really having a great time with their friends. We love swim team.

Love the pictures---a picture is worth a thousand words! Cute, cute, cute. Nice to have all five kids on the team at the same time.

great job tanner connor sydney.

have i gathered correctly that every last TN cousin who's old enough is on "the team"?

can we somehow get an all cousin relay team?
