Gymnastics

Our summer activity to keep the kids busy was gymnastics (this was our 3rd summer to take it).  One because Brinley loves it and two because it is indoors and we don't have to endure the Texas heat! This was Clayton's first time to be in a class without me, so I was able to have 1 hour to sit in silence 1 day of each week.
 
Brinley moved up a level, so more time was spent working on the parallel bars and balance beam.  She also perfected her handstand (and walking handstand) and is almost able to do a complete split.

Clayton had fun in his class too.  He is able to do a roll, do a chin up on the bar, pull himself up to the rings and hold himself there and kinda do a cartwheel.

It is hard to believe the summer is over and Brinley will be starting first grade tomorrow! The summer went by so fast.  We look forward to gymnastics next summer, but we are getting ready to kick off soccer (clayton gets to play too) and dance! Onward to a new kind of busy!!!
