New Tricks!

Approaching the bar.

I love how her legs are perfectly straight. No deductions there!

Preparing for the dismount. One can always concentrate better with an open mouth.
The dismount. Flawless. I love how Anna is her captive audience.


Look out Shawn Johnson! There's a new gymnast in town! Raychel has discovered how to flip upside down, swing back and forth a couple times, then flip off the bar. She is quite good at it if I say so myself. She's got the perfect, skinny build for gymnastics. Wonder what trick she will discover next...

WOW, just looked at the blogs from March 2008. Can't believe how all the girls have changed in just a year! I'm so proud of all the girls, especially Raychel, she is our miracle. We have been blessed, and I'm sure if she wants to be a gymnast she will do it!!!!

Love,
Mom

Good job Raych! That's pretty good..... My kids would NEVER. They still won't go down the big slide. Wimps.

I was totally jamming to "It's Tricky." I don't think I've heard that one since HS, or was it Jr High? I don't remember, but that's an oldie. ;o)

I think gymnastics would be so much fun, I would love to see Raychel do the floor excercise. I think she would be so good at it.
