Last Saturday was the summer rec. league championships for swimming. There were ten or so teams there and the place was packed, as you can see from the photos of warm-ups.
Sydney loves these meets. She has a competitive side to her but the real reason she loves going is to see all of her friends.
Here Sydney is finishing her 25 Yard Freestyle. Jay promised her she could go to Cold Stone afterwards if she beat any of her times and could get a scoop of ice cream for every time beaten. I don't know if she was just holding back on us, if she was excited by all the people there watching or if she is just starting to figure it out but she beat all three of her times, even winning one of her heats! We are pretty proud. 
Her freestyle improved to 28.0 from 30.10, her backstroke to 29.92 from 34.80 and her breaststroke to 29.0 from 36.90.
*We just found out that Sydney not only won her heat in the 25 yard breast stroke but took 4th place overall. There were four heats with about 8 kids in each so she ended up beating out 30-32 other kids. The 4th place ribbon is pink so she is especially happy with it ;-)
