This weekend brought Kendall's first swim meet with Texas Terrapins Swim Team. After such a great experience with the summer swim team, Kendall decided she wanted to do this year-round. Since she turned 11 in September, she also moved into a new age group. The meet was an all weekend meet. Kendall was not in any events Friday night but swam both Saturday and Sunday. She was not nervous and never noticed the difference we could see with her move into the new age group. As Kendall stood on the blocks, she was surrounded by girls who are nearly twice her size! She was also swimming distances she had never swam in a meet before. It was quite a learning experience and she now knows what to expect. Our pictures and video did not turn out great but here are a couple from the weekend.

Kendall's first event on Saturday was the 100 IM. She is in the last lane in this clip.
We have another meet next weekend. Unfortunately, I will miss Saturday due to having to teach Saturday Science Camp. Hopefully, I will get to go on Sunday.
The upcoming week is a busy one for Blake as well. It is his high school Homecoming week. They have a parade on Tuesday which is during school hours. Wednesday is their Pep Rally and JV game. Thursday is the Freshman game. Saturday is the dance that Blake is still deciding on. He's gonna have one busy week!
