Spook Splash #4

We survived another weekend in the sauna.  Bailee swam in her fourth Spook Splash meet this last weekend.  We headed to Lander early Saturday morning and arrived to find that Bailee had forgotten to throw in her swim bag...YIKES!!  Luckily she had her suit on under her clothes and they were selling goggles and caps at the meet {although we were seriously gouged!!:}  I'm tellin' ya, that girl has been a little scattered lately {more than usual:}  I am sure that didn't make for the calmest start to the day... ..but she managed to pull it together and was ready to go.
This meet is always a bit rough because the team has just started the season and are a little rusty.  This year was even worse, because we got a new coach and had to wait for her to get her credentials before we could practice, so the kids really only had 1 week of practice before the meet.  They all did pretty well considering.

It was so freaking hot in there...but we were determined to cheer for our CKATS.  I have to say, Kars and Emm are sooo good about sitting through those meets.. .. ..they can be terribly long.
We did take them outside for breaks off and on.  It was a beautiful fall day, and Emmrey was "King of the Mountain".
Bailee is definitely the best cheerleader for the rest of her teammates.  One of her close friends was swimming a 500 and she asked Bay to keep track of laps for her.
We went to Gannett Grill with some of the team for dinner that night...yummy:}
It is always a fun meet to go to, just wish it wasn't so uncomfortable.. ..Lavender had no complaints:}
