first swim meet of the season

Anders isn't home right now, he departed school today to swim in his first meet of the season. I am eager to hear how things went for him and hope he can get some rest on his bus ride home from Rice Lake. Swim Anders swim!

Update--
Anders did really well at the meet. He placed first in the 100 breaststroke, his 200 freestyle relay, and in his first diving competition and his 200 IM relay placed second. He did get very worn out though, so spent the day on Wednesday sleeping and nursing an icky cough. I hope his health stays strong throughout the season so he doesn't have any serious health issues.

This is a message from his diving coach (I had no idea Anders would be a diver)

To give a comparison at their 1st meet Tuesday night Anders scored a 127.8 and Nate scored a 121.8. My 1st year divers during girls season this year did not score in the 120's until 3/4's through the season (and they all have gymnastics or a diving background). So we truly are off to an amazing start. I have explained scoring to your boys, and again this is something that gets confusing. I would please ask your boys to try and explain what they remember about it, then ask me any other questions. Asking them helps them actually remember and pay attention better.

home for the holidays

After school today, I drove to Mankato to pick up one of my all time favorite people! She wanted to stop at Canes to surprise her little bro...
