Our little fish!

Sabree had her first Logan swimming meet on Saturday. She has been swimming for the Sports Academy Barracuda swimming team since November. She swims 3 days a week and is loving it! She has really improved over the past several months. When we got to her meet she was quite nervous. We were definately not in Fillmore anymore! There were so many people there. When she was on the Fillmore swimming team she would swim against 8 year old's and under, swimming 25's and would compete against 3 or 4 other girls. At this meet she had to swim against 10 year old's and under, 50 meters and she competed against 20+ girls. It was a little intimidating in the beginning.
This is Sabree during warm-ups. I could tell she was nervous just by the way she was standing. She looked so small standing around with all of the other swimmers!
She's on the block, ready to dive in her first event. She's so cute!Grandma and Grandpa Adams drove up to see her swim. They stayed the night on Friday and stayed the entire day Saturday for her meet. It was so helpful to have them there and Sabree really appreciated it! It sure made her feel special. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!
Luke, Sabree and Grandpa!
This is a picture from Friday night! The kids had just gotten a valentine from Grandma and Grandpa with tons of candy in it. Jaylee's lips are really red from the candy and you can see the "wired" expression on Sabree's and Oliver's face from all of the candy! We love Grandparents...that's what they are for...love 'em, spoil 'em, feed 'em candy!

Here are Sabree's final numbers from the meet...
50 Breaststroke - 56.6 seconds (she came in 6th place, she beat all the other 8 year old's but was behind some of the 9 and 10 year old's)
50 Freestyle - 41.07 seconds (she came in 8th but again beat all the other 8 year old's)
50 Backstroke - 51.45 seconds (she came in 4th place, and beat all the other 8 year old's)

That's awesome! I had no idea she was a swimmer! Cute blog by the way. I am determined to get mine updated this week. UGH! I'm so behind it feels like homework. Maybe I'll just start from this day forward - no looking back:) The thought makes me breath a sigh of relief.

You guys have been busy! I can't believe how much Jaylee has changed. I think she will forever be a toddler in my mind. Love your family picture. You look FABULOUS.
