These Moments . . .

I'm about a week behind on posting these moments.  Actually, I think it's two now!!  Oh well.  It's been a whirlwind of end-of-school-year activity around here and not just at school.  Megan had her first Gymnastic Olympics two weekends ago.  We are so proud of how well she's doing and how fearless she is.  She jumps right up on the balance beam and bars.  She has mastered her cartwheel and has almost mastered her one-handed cartwheel.  Her upper body strength has increased so much since she started just a few months ago.  She absolutely loves her classes and we're so happy with the instructors. 

Watching the older girls do their round-off back handsprings.  She was in such awe!! 

She was so excited to receive her first trophy and had to bring it into Dunkin' Donuts with her on her way home.  : )

Megan's team.

We are so darn proud of this little mama and how she's grown this last year.  She's learned how to read.  She's adjusted to a new school and made lots of new friends.  She's mastered her cartwheel.  She makes me proud to be her Mom every day.  Six years later and I still can't believe I have a daughter!!  : )

Wishing you a beautiful and safe weekend ~ Wendy

A New Gymnast . . .

A couple of weeks ago, Jim went to drop Megan off at a birthday party and ended up being a half hour early (my fault) so there was a little time to kill.  Megan has been mentioning that she wants to try her hand at gymnastics.  We've been looking for a class for her to join and found out about a great place in the next town over from us.  It happened to be right up the street from where the birthday was being held so they ventured in to check it out.  They offer a free trial class before you register to see if it's a good fit and last night was the class.  

 Megan had a blast!!  She ran around the gym, stretched and tumbled.  She did handstands and headstands.

 She worked up a sweat and made new friends.

We signed her up for one class a week to start.  She couldn't be happier.  This might also have something to do with the fact that the little boy in her class that she seems to have taken a liking to goes to class on the same night. 

 And so it begins!!!  : )


Happy Friday and happy weekend!!  ~ Wendy
