The kids in action

Mesa has been practicing to become a gymnast for quite some time now and one of the things she practices is doing the splits. I think it's pretty amazing and I really am going to put her into gymnastics one of these days. I promise Mesa! Here is a pic of her doing the splits.
Her cartwheels have improved a thousand percent over the last few months as well. She literally just does cartwheels without notice and its quite funny. I've learned to just let her do them even in the house because it was way too annoying to have to tell her 10,000 times a day not to!










Then there's Blaze. He just loves going to the skatey park and riding his bike. I think that boys that spend all their time down there are a bunch of losers and I don't want my boy to be like that so he doesn't get to go very often, but the boys are extremely talented when it comes to doing all sorts of tricks I must admit. Here's Blazer the little beginner.
Candace loves to play her recorder and I have learned to let her practice pretty much whenever she wants to because I think it's so important to practice what you enjoy so you can become good at it. My parents NEVER told me to be quiet when it came to practicing my flute or the piano. I'm sure I annoyed them plenty with the same tune over and over and over again but they gave me my space and time. Thanks Mom and Dad! Here's Canny playing a good little tune.














The kids and Rick went for a bike ride to the beach yesterday and he took a couple of nice pics. Does it make you want to come for a visit? Good! Come on over anytime guys!

Looks beautiful, of course. Why does it have to be so far away?

I'd like to have a cartwheel contest with Mesa. What songs does Candace play?

Okay Blaze...get a helmet on boy! And maybe Mesa should put one one too...at the rate she's going, she might just do a cartwheel over the railing! Candace could put one on just to fit in...hahahaha
