City Park

Mia's classmate, Colin, had his birthday party at City Park. The first ride that Mia saw was the Ladybug roller coaster and said "Oh Boy, look at that". She was SO excited. Here's Mia and Olivia on the "mardi gras" ride as they called it. (Tilt a whirl)
Coming down from the high slide...I think half the class did this at least 50 times. They'd go up, come down and back around again.
Cameron, Mia and Olivia back on the "mardi gras" ride.


Mia, Olivia and Cameron and Danielle on the Ladybug Roller Coaster. They did this ride a bunch of time too. They'd get off and run to get back in line.


Mia and Megan on the train. The entire party took a ride around the park on the train.

Gym Night

Mia takes gym (tumbling) at dancing. They had a special performance to show everyone what they learned. Each tumbler received a certificate after their performance.

The Sombrero Cup - Gymnastics Meet

This was Mia's first year competing at a gymnastics meet. She placed 1st on the uneven bars and 4th overall. She did VERY well for her first meet. All participants came home with 4 ribbons for each event: vault, balance beam, uneven bars and floor and a medal. For those who placed 1st, 2nd, or 3rd in each event, received a larger medal for their efforts. All of the meet participants walked out from the stage. Mia was a Flamenco Dancer.

On the balance beam.....she didn't fall off...yeah!
