Sammy C and Sammie W







Samantha decided to take a break from dancing this year and try out gymnastics. She has really enjoyed it. I think she likes the challenge. I could tell she really liked it because after several friends quit she still wanted to go. Her and her friend the other Sammy continued together. I have seen a huge improvement in her from the first of the year. She even wants to continue through the summer but I think we will have her take a break to do some other fun summer activities. At the end they did a cute little Jr Olympics gymnastics meet were they performed each event and earned awards just like a real gymnastics meet. It was so cute it was fun to see what they had learned throughout the year! They even performed a little floor routine. After we went out for ice cream with both the grandparents.

I can't believe how grown up Sammy is! Do I sound like her long-lost aunt? Actually, that probably isn't that far off... :)

Happy Mother's Day to you!!

Why was I always SO scared of the bar and the beam? Just looking at those pictures makes me a little afraid. :) Good job Sammie! You're talented and brave!
