Gymnastics Meets

We are knee deep into competition season.  This girl is keeping us busy!  We stayed at the beach for the Mobile meet.  This weekend, we journeyed to Mountain Brook for her meet. Uncle C and Aunt Taylor were able to join us for this meet. It's so much fun watching her do something she loves so much!  Pop and I are her biggest fans!  Although it makes me very nervous, the beam is her favorite and strongest event!  One of the problems of waiting a week to do a blog is that you forget exactly what happened! So, I sadly don't remember exactly where she placed in the Mobile meet. Also, taking pictures in a gym is always challenging, so forgive the quality!!

Just a few from Mobile-warming up

Reed (and Lillian) are quite the troopers at these meets, but sometimes you just have to sneak in a little nap!

Bars

Beam

Floor

And vault-It's always hard to get good pictures of the vault.  It's always on the far side of the gym.

Sweet friends!

Mountain Brook-She finished 2nd overall in this meet.  She was 1st in Beam, 2nd in floor and tied for first in bars.

Warming up

They are little, but they are mighty, and so much fun to watch!!

Starting off on the floor........

Beam-This one is a little fuzzy, but look at that strength and those lines!!  Love to watch her on the beam!

Another one of my very favorite things is that she is going to turn to the camera when she gets an award!  It just makes my day!!

Her sweet friend Caralina after the meet.  Caralina was first in her division today! They were enjoying their victory cookie!

Nana and Gigi with their girls!

Family time!  So glad Uncle C and Aunt Tay got to join us! Love this bunch!!

Celebrating with a game of checkers at Cracker Barrel after the meet!

We actually have a couple of weeks off before our next meet.  However, she made All Stars in soccer, so we'll be headed back east for that soon! We also have a Fall Festival for Reed this week.
