Aunt Kim

Aunt Kim had a layover in DC, so we got to meet her for lunch down in Georgetown. It was great to see her again- the girls talked her ears off!

New leotards and fun stuff

We had gym pictures last week- it took until midnight! But the girls had lots of fun, it was the first time dressing up in their new leotards. One of the girls on the team has a mom who sews, and so Rowan got a new leotard she picked out herself this year.(Last year she got moved to the team after they had been ordered, so I got her a used one on eBay that was nice, but she didn't get to pick it!) Its her favorite color- blue! And the stars were her idea, too. Gryphon may compete later this season if she gets more flexible (ouch...!)so she has a fancy leotard, too. Hers is from eBay, and she loves it.

The flash dies while Rowan was posing, so while the photographer got batteries I snapped some cheesy photos of my own of her. Gryphon had no flash malfunctions during her photo shoot, so I don't have any pics of her . I'm sure I'll have gymnastics pictures ad nauseum later though, never fear! ;)

OH happy day..!

Been dancing around to this song gleefully all morning. Polling places are packed from coast to coast, and the times they are a changing.
