Swim Meet One

Go Purple!
It was the year to change teams amongst all of the participants.  Nicholas was very relieved that we Stubers remained on the purple team again this year. 
The night before the first meet, Aldia says, "Oh mommy.  I wish tomorrow wasn't Saturday.  Purple is going to lose.  We're not so good."

I was just glad to have daddy in town for a meet finally.  The 6 am wake-up and get to the pool by 7 am Saturdays are a little easier with one more adult.

Alida taking off for her first race of the season--she did great!  And even though a coach swam the lane with her, Alida just took off past the coach with purpose about half-way through.

In character, about half-way through Elaine stopped.
She is a mental jumble when it comes to competition, because she swims like a fish if she's just in the water to have fun.

The boys competing in the middle two lanes there.
Looks like there is still a super-hero take-off happening again on the right. 


The only reason for going I think they think, to buy flavored cups of ice.
