Gymnastics

McKinley had her second week of gymnastics on Friday. She has been taking a tumble class at one of the local gyms. I have been very impressed with the teachers and the facility. McKinley absolutely loves going to gymnastics. She has two of her friends from our neighborhood in her class, which makes it even more fun. Her favorite thing to do is jump on the trampolines.

After class McKinley gets a stamp on her arm. She always gets really excited and spends the next week showing everyone her stamp, even though it was washed off by the next day.

Here she is with one of her friends from her class. We tried to get all 3 of the girls, but we couldn't get them to all stand still long enough.

Last week we went to Midland, MI with Brett. He had a clinical rotation at a hospital and we went with him. They put him up in a hotel that had 3 pools, a miniature golf course, a movie theatre and a bowling alley. So me and McKinley had a lot of fun while Brett was at the hospital all day. Then we got to have dinner with him when he got back at night.

I took McKinley minature golfing for the first time while we were there. She tried hitting the ball into the hole with her club for the first 2 holes, but then she got tired of it. After that she would pick up the ball and put it in the hole and then she would cheer for herself. We also went to the movie theatre once while we were there, and we went to the pool every day. McKinley loves swimming. Overall it was a really fun vacation, at least for me and McKinley.

How fun to have her in gymnastics. I'm sure she will be just as great as you at it especially if she is starting this early!

What a fun thing for you guys to go with Brett on his rotation and get such an awesome motel. Looks like fun!

That is so fun to see her so happy. It looks like she sure enjoys gymnastics. That sounds fun to be able to go with Brett and stay in a fun motel. I am itching to get away and do something fun, but money and time seem to get in our way.
