Elizabeth's Birthday

We went back-to-back on the birthdays. We had a lot of fun with Elizabeth's day. We went shopping in Austin for clothes and then dinner at Nami (Hibachi). We were tired by the end of the day, but everyone had a good time. E had some good news with cheerleading...she is one of the fliers now. She was a little anxious about being thrown in the air, but settled into it and did great! She is pretty excited about cheer starting.
Emily started practicing with her select soccer team this past week. She had a great time. They scrimmaged with some 12 year old girls. Em stayed with them pretty well. She threw the ball in further than any of the 12 year olds. Had a coach ask me what we were doing to get her to throw the ball in that far...didn't tell him it was the gymnastics she has taken for a couple of years. We have a preseason tournament August 16 & 17th.
Erin has decided she is sticking with dance. She is taking hip-hop for sure and may take tap/ballet as well.
We have only 3 weeks left until school starts for the girls. Melinda has about 3 days off until she starts back. She has meetings & curriculum going on for the next 2 weeks until she is scheduled to return. Not sure where the time went...none of us are ready to go back. Get the feeling it will come whether we are ready or not.

Happy belated birthday to Tia Jill. Her birthday is the day between Erin and Elizabeth's. Hope your day was great, Tia!
