Swimming at OBBT

This was Tate's first swim meet and he was so nervous about it but he was brave and wanted to swim. He had a private lesson with Coach Terry after practice to boost his confidence and he did great. All the kids have VFC swim spirit!

Tate and Joey being serious, if there is such a thing.

Tate and Joey doing funny faces.

Tate getting ready!

Matt, Tate and Cam

Lizzie, Anna, Maddie and Harper. Harper could not swim because of swimmer's ear but she was there to cheer everyone one!

Tate and Joey with Franking wanting in on some action but the boys kept him away by trying to grab him. I cannot post here on the blog about what was said.

Tate in line waiting to swim practicing his burps. Previously he had had been doing body farts with some of the boys. Not sure what is better!

Tate wanted to go off the block and got right up there. Terry is giving him a pep talk here!

Go Tate Go!

He made it all the way across without stopping! We are so proud!

EB is ready to go and has her war paint on. Nothing is more fun than writing all over your body with sharpie, right?

Hard to be a serious swimmer when your googles are on upside down!

In the water ready for backstroke!

EB doing the backstroke! She did great and cut time off for both freestyle and backstroke.
