Duck Derby

We spent last weekend at the Duck Derby at the local waterpark trying to win some prizes; and letting the girls play some games and jump on the inflatables. Once again, Liv would not go near the ducks to have her picture taken, but did enjoy waving to the ducks! Sorry to say, but we did not win any prizes, and left with some candy and some hungry children! We did make the front page of the newspaper on Sunday morning! The girls thought they were pretty neat stuff being in the paper!

The first week of school is about over and the girls have really enjoyed going so far. Addison is going 5 days and has been pretty tired lately. Can't imagine how she will be when she goes full days next year. Hard to believe that next year she will not be home to eat lunch with either!! Liv is going 2 times a week and can not get in the door fast enough!! She LOVES it!!. Both the girls started gymnastics back up tonight. Liv has really been looking forward to going. She was in the class for about 15 minutes and then all of a sudden just started crying and did not want to do "nastics" anymore. Not really sure what happened or exactly what her thought process was; we did finish the class through tears and with mom sitting in the gym with her. She told me on the way home that she is not brave because she was crying!! Breaks my heart!

Olivia has been sooo excited about her "nastics" class. Hard to imagine her just up and upset and walking out of her "nastics" class. Wonder if the teacher said something to Olivia about being "brave" :-(

I am happy for both girls being excited about school ! :-)

She says she will only go if I sit in the gym right beside her. I told her I will sit in the gym, but she has to sit with the other kids. We shall see...never would have expected this from her.
