Gymnastics and Kites

Lorén had her gymnastics performance this past week. We were so proud of her! She has all the grace of her mom and dad (cough-cough). She really did well though! She has always loved gymnastics. After the performance, mom, dad, Mike, Zach and I all went out for ice-cream at the local Fitzes (yum-o)! It brought me back to my Westminster Days. As we pulled up we saw 3 good friends there! It's fun to see your friends randomly like that!


Lorén and Ms. Viki


Yesterday we went to the St. Peter's Kite Festival. We drove around for 45 minutes trying to find the friggin park. Not only that, we got caught in a funeral procession for a soldier. We told the kids it was a parade because there had to be close to 150 Patriot Guard motorcyclists, 20 police motorcyclists, 2 Firetrucks and then the funeral procession. Anyway, the wait was definitely worth it though! By time we got there it was 12:30. The kids each made and flew their own kites for about an hour. Zachary wanted a green kite with green streamers. Lorén wanted a red kite with pink streamers! Thank goodness they were selling hot-dogs, sodas and chips for a buck! We ate a picnic lunch before heading home for family naps! Yesterday was a FANTASTIC family day!
