Holiday Spectacular.

This past Saturday Ella had her first big recital, the annual Holiday Spectacular of her gymnastics school. All of the preschoolers showed their skills on a route that required climbing, jumping, flipping, and walking on a balance beam.

I must say that even though Ella was the smallest kid there, she did quite well, only running off the route a couple of times.
We had quite the crowd there, with Daddy, Mimi, Grandmother, Gramma, G, and cousing Kalynn coming out to show their support!


Here Ella races to the foam triangle ahead of me. Once she climbs aboard, she flips down the slope with a little help from me.
Here Ella and I wait for the next event with our classmates Ms. Emily and Kaitlyn.

Ella had to climb all the way up this double rainbow, turn around, and slide down on her tummy. Such a feat.
At the end all of the kids got four ribbons, one per event: floor, beam, bars, and vault. My little gymnast is SO proud of her accomplishment and loves holding her ribbons!
