Our Agile Gymnasts

Besides cheering our brothers on at their games/meets and wearing their jerseys, don't worry, we do girl stuff too...







Sophie and Sage are so flexible they can almost bend in half. They love gymnastics and count down the days til their next class. Lately, they spend as much time upside down as right side up- I catch them doing handstands every opportunity they get. I sometimes have to remind them "we're not at Little Gym" when we're out and they try to use the grocery cart as uneven bars.

So, of course they were very excited when Danny & Lindsay (and their two cute sisters) invited us to a gymnastics meet at the "U" the other night. The boys had a great time at the auto show while we thoroughly enjoyed some girl time at the gymnastics meet. I wish I had my camera, especially when the music was playing in between events and Danny & Lindsay had Sophie and Sage dancing and giggling on their shoulders. They are so much fun!! The girls now say they want to be gymnasts, as long as I catch them so they don't break. Yes, Sophie & Sage, I'll catch my little gymnasts, I'll never let you break.

They are still as precious as ever!! They look great on the balance beam! Allie loves gymnastics also, she is also upside down more than right side up!!
