I Got To Be on Channel 10!!

This past Thursday- 4 kids from the gym (Usa Gym) got to be on Channel 10 to promote the Saturday event at Chandler mall. (promoting summer camps around the valley)

Ellie & Renee stretched out at 7:30 in the morning.

They were so silly- even that early.

Next to USA GYM was a reptile booth! AHHHH

(Ellie, Renee, Hayden & Hunter Taylor)

Renee wasn't afraid a bit. I think all of the kids ended up petting that snake.

One of the segments was promoting the science camps. Our 4 kids got their faces & shirts right in there. (alot of close up shots- ha ha)

The last spot the kids appeared in was with the Easter bunny at Chandler mall.

All together - our kids were in 3 shots.

1) The gym talking about our AWESOME summer camps. (See the website for more info!!)

(Elle did a good handstand, a back-hand spring {a lil sloppy} and she hopped around like a goof for a couple seconds- sorry Mike!)

2) The Science Guy's segment

3) The Easter Bunny.... (Ellie was getting bored.. so she decided to turn in circles instead of standing still. Corri (with Fox 10) was trying to ask all the kids what they got in their Easter baskets. When he turned to Ellie....... she was busy twirling & putting her arms in her shirt... NICE ELLE!!

It was lots of fun!

The kids got to do gymnastics, be on t.v., talk to the Easter Bunny, & we even got a $10 gift card to Paradise Bakery for being there to see the bunny. Not too shabby.

Next time, maybe I'll talk to Ellie about standing still if the camera is rolling.

.........................

OH YEAH- I never posted this!

Ellie has been setting goals for herself.

One day on the way to gymnastics, she told me that one of her goals was to learn her back handspring on the trampoline.....

Well, before we left that night she practiced a few...

She would ask me "how many fingers do you have on my back?".

Then she'd say "Take away a finger"...

When she asked me to not touch her I hesitated quite a few times.

BUT.......

As you can see we need to work on the form... but - WOW!!

She wanted to accomplish that before she was 5 - and she did!

After she learned it she proudly said "And I am STILL FOUR!!!"!

Good job Elle. Keep accomplishing your goals!!
