Gymnastics Recital!

Hanging out with Daddy before the show starts. I was SO happy to have Grandma Jo and Grandpa Howie come see Emmerson and me show off all the things we have learned.

Hands up before you start. Ummm, what are those? Rings? We haven’t practiced that before!! Crap! Oh no! PANIC! It lasted for about 10-20 seconds and Coach Grant let me go sit back down.

Ahh, something more familiar! Prepping for my backwards roll. I love the floor exercises and tumble track the best.

I was a bit wiggly but I didn’t get kicked out. Waiting for everyone else to go is so hard! But I LOVE gymnastics!

At the end I was so excited to get my trophy. Sadly, it was broken. It should spin but one of the little bars that helps it spin is broken. I went into a complete crying fit. Mommy explained that the new one was already on the way and it would be here when we go back to class in two weeks.

After the recital we raced to my friend’s birthday party. I managed to get whacked in the face with a huge wiffle-ball bat and then TWICE have sand thrown in my face and mouth. It just wasn’t my day!

Daddy and Emmerson made cupcakes tonight and we had a nice celebration for my 5 and a HALF birthday (technically yesterday!). I can’t believe I am 5 and a HALF! Next play date I am going to tell ALL my friends!!
