Every year my sister Janell throws a super fun back to school bash. Usually it involves swimming but this year we tried something new. She rented out a gymnastics studio for a couple of hours and let us all loose. I don't remember seeing a group of all ages enjoy something so much. From Kate to the adults, everyone had a blast! We had a relay race with the adults and kids (my team won of course!), tumbled, vaulted, performed tricks on the balance beam and jumped to our hearts content. The most fun was the foam pit with "diving" board. So realistic I went to plug my nose the first time in! Lilah was the pro of the day with that. By the end she was doing flips into it. Little Kate couldn't have been any happier with it all. Maybe we have some future gymnasts in the family, Neeley sure hopes so!

Our little brave one, Lilah flipping out!

Thanks for all the fun Janell and Jim!
