gymnastics

Another shot from the gymnastics class. This was pretty funny. She is getting ready to jump into the ring on the floor in front of her. But, instead of jumping in, she steps in and then jumps. She had a great teacher a VERY tall young man. In her first class with him, she cried most of the time. He was telling her dad how that was one of the toughest classes he had ever taught and how well she had done on this day. She still will not talk to the teacher, but she follows directions and seems to like the class. I could see her warm up and get more relaxed and free as the class went on.

very cute...love the motion blur since it gives a sense of energy, and little girls at that age are nothing but bundles of energy :)

We were allowed to shoot, but no flash and most of the time you were pretty far away from the action.--Rene

Very nice. I was at my daughters final night this week as well. It is the only time parents can take photos.
