Julia's Gymnastics

This past year we let Julia try out gymnastics. She fell in love with it. She has come a long this year. I have watched as her coordination has steadily improved as she learned to bend and balance her body. At the end of May she participated in the Mini-Olympics held at her gym. Basically the gymnasts showcased all they have learned and earned ribbons and a medal. They even had an awards ceremony. She was beaming when we showed us her ribbons and her medal. One proud little girl!! The classes are off for the summer, but she has already decided she wants to continue with gymnastics next year. In the mean time, Julia is going to join Gabe and Isaac at karate. She will be one of the few girls in there, but that's okay. She doesn't seem to mind.

Karate and Gymnastics

We are not the type of parents that push our kids into every sport and activity that comes to them. However, we do encourage our kids to try new things.

Isaac has been participating in karate since January and is getting close to testing for his orange belt.Gabe has enjoyed taking karate alongside Isaac and is now a red belt. Sometimes when Gabe and Isaac are practicing, Caleb will go in there and kick his little feet and punch his hands just like the big boys. So adorable!

Julia  has been talking about trying gymnastics for quite some time now. Yesterday was her first class and let me tell you..... SHE LOVED IT! She was all smiles when we left. So fun to watch my little gymnast tumble, jump, and balance to her heart's content.
