Future Olympian!















Emma is loving her weekly gymnastics class and is doing very well in it too! She is a tumbling fool, flipping over in summersaults all day long. I think those are her favorites. She is pretty good at the (assisted) back walkovers and balance beam too. I can see her getting stronger every week as she can now flip her legs up and onto the bar when she is dangling. This past week was her first official "mini-meet." It was less about competition at this level and more about showing off skills for family and friends. Grandma & Al, Uncle Scott, Karen, Mikayla, & TJ all came out to cheer her on and they thought she did wonderfully. Grandma even bought Emma & Hayden matching leotards for their performance. Could they be any cuter?! After class we all went out for frozen yogurt to celebrate. We love this courtyard by the yogurt shop too. They've got music, shade, and a great little fountain. I keep paint brushes in my jeep and Emma & her friends always have a great time "painting" the bricks, sidewalks, and each other with water. It was the perfect cool treat for a warm summer evening.
