Busted Swim Meet

Well, the last swim meet of our season ended in a bust. It was an away meet at Abbington. Some of our friends swim for them so we were really looking forward to seeing them.
It started to cloud up about an hour before we needed to get to the meet. There was a flash of light just as the first relay was about to start. I asked Dan if it was a camera flash. Wishful thinking on my part. The weather did not clear up in time to have the meet. It was decided not to try again the next day.
Miriam did get a chance to warm up in the water with the team. She was going to swim freestyle, backstroke, and breaststroke. We had told her if she swam in a meet she could have a hula hoop. Her warm up looked good so she earned her hula hoop. Christian was disappointed not to get a chance to swim the meet.
We were all thankful it was not a late night.
Today we are going to a free movie. Regal movies offers free family movies on Tuesdays and Wednesdays throughout the summer.
Our movie theatre even has dollar drinks and popcorn for this event.

Have mercy! I live two streets over and just found you on the internet. It really is a small bloggy world. We have a blog that will soon (starting tomorrow) morph into a homeschool blog (www.blondiesbits.blogspot.com). I'll check back often!
