Flippin' Gymnastics Meet

Amelia had her first taste of gymnastics this year.  She enjoyed it and showed lots of progress from her first class to her last.  There was a little end-of-the-year performance where each gymnasts did a short routine on each of the various apparatuses (yep, that's right, I looked it up).

She never really took gymnastics too seriously, preferring to goof and socialize with the other girls.  On performance night, though, she was especially attentive and it was hard to catch any glimpses of her smiling.

All business on the bars.

She did great and we were so proud of her!  It is not easy to get up in front of a large group of people and perform! 

Amelia and her teacher, Ms. Ashley.

Her buddy, Kylie, was also performing that night.

We decided to celebrate post performance at DQ for a little dilly bar/dipped cone action.  Henry promptly spilled some of his dilly bar chocolate on his shorts.  No worries, though, no chocolate was wasted.

Amelia insisted on bringing in her flowers with her.  She watched all of the other gymnasts get flowers immediately following the performance and didn't think she was going to get any.  Once we handed her bouquet to her, there was no way she was putting it down!
