Spring Gym Show

I forgot to change my camera to the right setting until the show was almost over, but here are the pictures from the "Beach Party" Theme (that's why the swimsuits) Twinkle Stars Gymnastics Show. It's amazing what 3 to 5 year olds can do and remember to do on the obstacle course--well, most of them....ummm not necessarily including my daughter. She remember's what to do just fine. But let's just say Ella will never be the next Mary Lou...but she absolutely LOVES gymnastics and has NO idea how terrible she is at it. It's so sweet. We encourage her to do it and overcome her great fear of heights, and become more coordinated. It was a fun night, and Nana & Pa arrived straight from the airport (after a thunderstorm delay) just in time for it!

Did I mention she's afraid of heights?

So glad to hear "Nana" and "Pa" arrived in time. We had been praying for them.
I know they were looking forward to gymnastics and ballet preformances. What a great birthday gift for "Pa" to hold new grandson, Baby Nicholas!
Happy Birthday Delbert!
Enjoy your time together Everyone.

Just a small part of the Arizona family thinking of you,
Ron and Deb

Cute! Both of my girls have height issues too, let's say it's an Earnhart thing! So we're doing "Nikky" as a nickname? I think it's cute! Can't wait to see you all.
