Swimming is the best sport for little boys... It burns off their energy, it allows them to have some healthy competitions, gives them strength and endurance & it is fun and refreshing! This year two Barker kids are enrolled in Swim Team. With this being year 2 for Josh and the fact that he is the top of his competition class (8 and under) he is on fire! With 3 meets under his belt, he has only gotten red, white and blue ribbons... And he signs up for every possible race he can! He has even decided that a 25 back stroke is too easy for him and swims up with the 9-10 year olds so that he can swim the 50 back. What a difference year 2 of swim team makes. We are so proud of Kyle too... He is one of the youngest kids on the team and has stuck through every practice without complaining. The one requirement to joining the team was to be able to swim across the pool. On day 1 he struggled and struggled to get across but has made a lot progress since then :). He now swims 2 races each meet and is soooo excited to win his ribbons :).
Kyle getting ready for his first meet.
Whops, he forgot to pull down his goggles... He still made it across!
And there goes Josh!
During the downtime between races, Kyle managed to catch a frog :).
He became the hit of the meet among the kids! Such a scientist!
I am not sure which was more exciting for Kyle, the frog or the race?!
Josh and his prizes! Good job, son.
Good Job Kyle, you worked hard!
First 1st place of the season... He was so excited!
