A Week On The Beach

We are on vacation this week in Florida.  The last time I was in Florida was when I was only 6!  This time I have all of my cousins here: Landon, Jack, Rowan and Maggie.  There are 3 different condos for each family.  Plus we spent the night at Gram and Papi's house one night too.

We spent a lot of time on the beach making sandcastles and burying ourselves. 

Here is a picture of me in the ocean that Daddy took from the condo.  I like the beach and ocean but I always want to go to the pool more.  I can't get enough of the pool even if we have them in Indiana.

One fun thing we did is get out glow sticks after a walk.  And we had a little dance party.  Jack was so funny how he was dancing.  

My third grade teacher is...

...Mr. McGuire. It is like I'm going back to kindergarten!  I just found out today.  I am really excited because that is the teacher that I wanted.  I am happy that Abigail and Lyric are in my class and I'm also excited to know who else is in my class.  Mr. McGuire has an auction with McGuire bucks at the end of the semester. He also does science which is one of my favorite subjects.   But I'm still not totally ready for summer to be over.  I want to see my friends but I am not ready for homework!

Champs

Like always, Champs is the day before we went on vacation.  And it is a long, long day with a lot of races.  We hung out with the McAfees.

In the closest lane getting ready for 25m butterfly.

I did 5 races and I got 5 medals.  I won my heat in backstroke and I got a ribbon that you could show at the tent for a popsicle.  I ended up with three 4th place medals (2 relays and individual 25m backstroke) which were yellow.  I also got orange and brown medals for my other races. Uncle Tim said I looked like a rapper with all of my medals.

And my team, the Seacats, won again.  We won last year too.  So we got to push the coaches in the pool at the end.  Then we got in the van and drove to Florida.
