I’m just sure that someday these pictures are going to be famous once Camryn makes it to the 2024 summer Olympics (which will be held in Paris, by the way. Awesome! Vacation in Paris!)
Oh wait…as much as she loves gymnastics, she’s kind of a giant plus I think we as a family lack the focus and attention (not to mention funds) it would take to bring up an Olympic gymnast. But either way, she loved gymnastic this year. On the last class of the year, parents get to come in all paparazzi-like, which of course was right up my ally.
She worked all year long on her backwards roll, and she finally got to ring the bell a few weeks ago. The kids get to ring the bell when they do something all by themselves. She talked and talked and talked about getting to ring that bell. (Please never tell her that I might have been busy talking to a friend during that particular class and technically missed the big bell-ringing moment. Bad mom alert!)
She’s got a little more work to do on her cartwheel, but she sure goes for it.
Love the concentration here.
At the end of the class, they had a medal ceremony for all the kids.
She’s got her finishing pose down pat.
One last picture with coach David. She loves coach David!
We loved taking gymnastics with our friend Brock. We had a standing Monday date at the gym and then “chicken lay” aka “chick a lay” aka Chick-fil-a. I’m bummed that next year they will go to preschool on opposite days so we won’t be able to enroll in the same class again.
We’ll just have to plan to meet up in Paris 2024.
What great photos! You captured the whole gymnastic experience well. What a big girl you have… And if you make it to the Olympics, I’m sure they’ll feature you in one of those commercials that always make me cry. 🙂
such determination and joy in these pics! way to go cami!
