Swim Team has started!!!!

Swim team has started up again this year! Caitlin was super excited to start swimming and even more excited for the meets. This past Tuesday we had our first practice meet. This is where they get to participate in the events but they are not competing against another team.
Caitlin was so happy that this year she had a lot more friends on her team. She was anxious to get started on swimming.
She was so ready that when they did the relay she went down and wanted to go back, Coach Doug had to stop her! She did act as two swimmers though and did the first position and the fourth position!
Caitlin and her good friend Zoe! This is Zoe's first year on swim team, she was in kindergarten with Caitlin.
Below is Caitlin and Zoe having a serious conversation, I would love to know what they are discussing!
The head coach, Coach Josh. He is excellent, he teaches the kids technique. He has such control over the kids.
C getting ready for the freestyle.
And she is set.
And she if off...
And, this would be the first place winner of the race!! I am so proud!
C cheering on her teammates. There were 3 heats for this race.
Unfortunately, my battery died at this point. The next race was the relay, they ended up in second, though C was the first one on her team and beat her girl by a lot. The third race she was in was the backstroke. She got third.
I am such a proud mommy! Caitlin is am amazing swimmer!
What a day for the Gavin's! I also have great news...I will be teaching fifth grade next year at a Cobb school. It is a very good school and the principal I taught under before. I am super excited for the position!
