Valentines day!

It was tradition with Ben from early in his life to make homemade personalized photo valentines to hand out in his class.  It was personally a favorite of mine and something I really enjoyed.   And it was the one time of years that Ben would cooperate and take a decent smiling picture (*sigh,   photographers kid) with out moaning and growning.  Lol. 

   We made these special valentines for years till sadly he grew out of it and asked to stop one year.    I graciously understood him wanting to stop and let it go....

 Till this year!  

  You guys!   I have a little girl that I get to do it all over with again!    I was so excited and Brooklynn loved it!    She rocked her photo and proudly handed them out to her class mates,  teachers and principle.   


 
And Ben wasn't a total dud,  he handed out some suckers and pencils to his class mates!

First gymnastics class ever!

Image
 Brooklynn has been asking for YEARS to take gymnastics classes,   she loves doing flips,  cartwheels,  backbends and is actually really good at it all.  On her own she has amazing talent and friends and strangers alike are always shocked when they find out that she is self taught so far and has had zero classes.    She works Dailey on all the things gymnastics and never seems to tire of it.   *She might even be the reason that cartwheels are no longer allowed at school (hallways, classrooms, gym)  lolol   So, This years the only thing she asked for christmas was ....you guessed it,   gymnastics lessons.    And she was serious too.  She told everyone she talked to "for Christmas I want gymnastics!!!"   So grandparents and parents together made it happen.        We found her private classes and her first lesson was last night.   I've never seen her so exited and nervous...
