This year Jaydon decided that he wanted to do swim team insteadof soccer. Well, he will play soccer in fall after swim is over- Anyways, he is on the Anderson Mill Barracudas and has been having a great time. Last friday was time trials where they swim their strokes and find out a base time so that when they compete they have an idea of what time they need to beat. This team is really great in that they really stress "personal best" as the goal. They want the kids to ultimately swim against themselves and try to get better each and every week.
The girls were being so good considering it was 98 degrees outside.
Here is the whole team getting ready to take the team picture. There are 213 swimmers!
At first Jaydon was not happy about wearing a speedo- but then he said that it made him swim so fast that he loved it!!! He looks so small when he wears it- it cracks me up.
Jaydon is still learing how to do all the strokes and how to breathe properly so he placed towards the end but he had so much fun that he didn't even notice. We know that he will get better and better.
Although he has to swim 6 days a week he absolutely loves it! We hope that this will really make him a great swimmer.

How cute! Jazlynn looks SO big! That's so funny he didn't want to wear the speedo! Cute! What a fun time! We can't wait to hear more about it! Go Jaydon!
He is so big. Love the Speedo!!!! Can't wait to maybe watch him someday!!!
fun that jaydon is on the barricudas... em is swimming with the cedar park typhoons this year. maybe they'll compete this year! :) em's the same way about just learning the strokes, so is not too fast, but like you, i love how that doesn't even matter... it's all about competing with yourself and doing your personal best. thanks for the pics... your kids are adorable!
The speedo is totally cracking me up. At least its a long one. That is neat that he's doing swim though. When he competes let me know because Chloe wants to come watch
