Beach Day

Yes, you read the title right. Thursday was Beach Day for Hope's class and it was only around -29 with wind chill outside. Hope knew exactly what she wanted to wear and was really excited to be in shorts. It seems like she had lots of fun, especially since she has not stopped talking about it :)

On a side note, Micah passed his swimming lessons and is onto Swim Kids 5! Pretty sure he has passed the level I was at when I was in swimming.

Hope

On Wednesday, the day Hope has been waiting for finally came. In January, Hope asked me to sign her up for gymnastics so being to good mother that I am, I did. Since that day, Hope has asked pretty much everyday (and those of you who know Hope know that I am not exaggerating) if today was gymnastics and the answer was always "no". Well on Wednesday the answer was finally "yes". She stretched all day to get ready and when it was time to go in and meet her coaches, she was a bit scared but she went right in. While Curtis and I watched her for the hour, she did not stop smiling and was loving every minute of it!! The funniest part was when they were walking on all fours across the balance beam and the theme music from the Pink Panther came on she had to stop and tell her coach that the music was from the Pink Panther and then kept on going. Now she cannot wait to go back!
