PERFECT 10

Ellie works (& plays) so hard on Thursdays.

She has dance in the afternoon & then gymnastics at night.

She loves it!

She loves to practice all of her tricks & that is probably why she learns so quickly.

Practice, practice, practice!!!

This is one of her FAVORITE friends at gymnastics!

Meet one of the most beautiful little girls I have ever seen... CHRISTY JOE!

(She is not only so cute, but just as sweet. It kills me. She is a model. {GAP at one point.} Ellie wants to have long hair like hers.. even though we do not have hair like Christy Joe's!)

Ellie loves playing with her cousin, Natalie, too. BUT they are not in the same class. I am sure they will be one day.

This is at the last MINI MEET.

Ellie loved that her daddy came and watched.

Yesterday {1-12} was her 3rd MINI MEET.

She asked more people to come. She had quite the cheering section!

The preschoolers perform before the actual mini meet starts.

We all got a good stretch in before the performance.

Ellie & Christy Joe waiting so nicely.
Ellie was so excited.

She did so good.

It was so cute.

(sorry about the lighting)

I missed her first 1/2, because I was helping kids for their second 1/2.

Good thing Lance got it on film.

She loves the bars.

She has improved so much lately at them.

I am not sure who is more proud.

Her

or

her coach!!

Watch out for those LONG legs when she is kickin'!

And of course.....

STICK!!!

{Dang, look at that form!}

We have the cutest preschool kids!

After all the Preschool kids performed,

the PRESCHOOL STARS came out to show off some TALENT.

{and believe me, they got it}

HALO position

SUPER GIRL..

so tight!

Each kid got to show their favorite trick.

Ellie showed her CART - WHEEL one more time!

TAA-DAA

For anybody interested in having their kids take a class or two...

come down to USA GYM for a trial class.

{E-mail me if you want them to try out a class that I coach.}

If it is too much to commit.. your kids can come to

A) OPEN GYMS (almost all Friday nights)

B) Preschool OPEN GYM (every Thursday from 9 - 10:30 am) Parents & kids can come hang out, and even enjoy a snack at the end!

C) Kids Night Out. Parents go on a date & leave the kids at the gym! The kids get to play in the gym, eat pizza, do a craft & watch a movie. (The gym tries to have one per month on Saturday nights from like 6 - 9 pm) There is one coming up on JAN. 19th! Let me know if you want me to tell you when these are. When you sign up early it is cheaper & if you have more than one kid to sign up... also less money!

USA gymnastics is located on by Stapley & the 60. They are moving to a new LARGER gym around Gilbert & Ray. (It should be done this summer I think.) They offer so many classes, have great coaches.. I could go on & on!)

While I am giving a shout out... I gotta give another!
One of my new favorite stores with the best deals is

2nd CHANCE DANCE!!

They have new & used dance clothes, gymnastics outfits, dance shoes, uniforms, & even costumes! I will never buy a leotard at full price, again.

You have got to check them out! They are located by Bashas on Southern & Val Vista!

{you can either try to print this coupon or tell them that you saw it on my blog}
