Red, White, and Blue Invitational

So, just when I thought swimming was over - we had one more meet. Adilyn qualified in the backstroke for the Red, White, and Blue Invitational. It was some of the best swimmer in the whole area competing in a high school natatorium. It was a completely different experience than we have had so far. I was a little intimidated, so I am sure that Adilyn was also. We were waiting forever for her race, so we grabbed a snack and went outside. When we got back in, we realized that it was almost time for her race! She had to run into the ready bench area, and pretty much go right into the water. I felt bad for her, because she was kind of unprepared. Honestly, the way that Adilyn does things, I don't think she would have done better with 20 minutes of mental prep. :) She got in the water, and did great! She got her best time ever, and she ended up 9th in her age group of 14 kids. Pretty fantastic in my book! I am glad that we went out on a high note, and we will be ready for next season. :)
