Gymnastics Fun!

We signed Michael and Mary Ellen up for gymnastics at Miss Libby's Dance Studio.  I was really just going to sign Mary Ellen up for dance but it was Andrew's idea to maybe try and get them both in something this year.  So gymnastics was it.  They really just get to jump around and do lots of physical stuff, although in a much more organized fashion.  And they both love it and look forward to it each week.  With all that said, this will probably be Michael's one and only year at Miss Libby's.  Don't think Daddy will let him join in Mary Ellen's ballet class next year!

Their teacher is awesome!  Miss Angie has the patience of Job!  She has an amazing way of creating a fun atmosphere while setting firm guidelines in an attempt to wrangle the chaos!

Flips are the best!  I have to thank my other gymnastic Mom's who brought their cameras on observation day or else there would be no pictures.  Observation day is once per semester and of course the day came while Andrew was TDY and I was running on empty.  Needless to say I forgot.  Thanks Katie and Raleigh! 

Circle Time!

Stretches!

This one cracks me up!  There is a strip on the ground that they are supposed to line up on.  Why Mary Ellen is facing the opposite way is beyond me!  So cute...she is on the line though!
