Dancing Queen

Leslie and I went to a charity auction that Sarah's school put on as a fund raiser earlier this year. We had never been to any kind of auction before and it was kind of fun! We managed to get a winning bid on a basket full of fun things for the kids to do during the summer. One of them was a series of dance lessons for a local dance studio.

Sarah had a vollyball training camp scheduled to go to so we signed Rebekah up for the dance lessons. She has been having a great time learning dance. For the littler kids they go between different dance styles to keep the kids from getting bored working on just one thing the whole time. She has been having fun learning ballet, tap, and what they call Pom & Cheer. Now she is dancing around the house all the time! Now we just have to make sure that she doesn't get dizzy spinning around or bump into too many things! I can hear mom singing it now... "Dancing Queen..." (Sorry for the ABBA flashback!)

Gymnastics

I really like the YMCA! It provides a great place for the family to go to work out, swim, and do other neat things. The girls have gotten involved in the gymnastics program at the "Y" and they continue to get better and better.

Sarah and Rebekah both enjoy going every Saturday. They've moved past the basic moves and continue with their conditioning and flexibility. I don't know if this will continue as a long term love for the girls, but we're enjoying watching them have fun with it!
