Trophies!!!!

Every year at the end of the summer session at gymnastics they give out trophies. The trophies are based on how many years you have been doing gymnastics and the kids all get very excited to receive theirs. This year we used Kiley's trophy as a bribe so she wouldn't act up in class :)


I can't believe all the things Kiley has learned in this class. She has mastered her forward roll, holding herself up on the bar and making a "W" and "L" while hanging on the bar. I think gymnastics is such a good class for my girls to be in, they are learning lots of coordination and strength!


Kiley was the first in her class to get her trophy and she was SO proud of herself. She walked up the steps, received her trophy and just beamed with pride! I was also beaming with pride! The cutest part of all of it was when she looked at her trophy then looked at me and said "me take it home!?!?!"

A few days later it was Hailey's turn to receive her trophy! This is Hailey's 3rd year in gymnastics but we did take about a year or so off. Hailey was the last in her class to get her trophy because she is the one who has taken gymnastics the longest. She waited so patiently while everyone else got their trophies but you could tell she couldn't wait for her name to be called.


Hailey was also beaming with pride as she received her trophy, after she got it she ran to me and said "look how big it is!!!" and honestly her trophy is really big! I'm very proud at all the progress she has made this year in class, her teacher even said she is ready to move up to the next class which is 5-7 year olds.




I'm very proud of both of my baby girls!

Hey batta,batta!!!!

Last weekend we thought it would be a great idea to go to the Indians game in 100 degree temps and 115 heat index :) Maybe not the best planning on our part BUT you can't always predict the weather. Once the sun went down it really wasn't that bad at the ball field, there was a nice breeze. Our girls aren't much for sports but they enjoyed spending time at the ball field with their Mamaw, Papaw and Mommy and Daddy.




And what isn't to love about food from the baseball field :)




We had a great evening at the Indians game and it is definitely on the list of things to do again when it isn't so hot. We even finished the night with a trip to White Castle at 11:30 in the morning, even Kiley enjoyed some chicken rings :)

4th of July FUN

I really don't have words to describe our 4th of July, it is always CrAzY!! My dad, brothers and husband LOVE the 4th and everything that goes along with it. Their favorite thing to do is see what they can blow up. This started two years ago when they blew up Marley's GI Joe. This year Barbie was the victim.

The 4th is always a wonderful holiday for the Hansen/Kerr/McMurran families, we have lots of food and fun. And I have tons of pictures to show all of our fun :)
