following in the gardner tradition...gracy has started soccer!
i was so proud of her, she was one of a few girls in the whole camp, and she didn't complain a bit! 
practicing her throw-ins
the bleachers
the magic of the chain-link fence
izzy's summer swim lessons! notice the haircut? she was making it longer like grace's. 
she told me this week that bologna makes her "angry"
the push-ups provided lots of entertainment, the girls were mesmerized by the science of the stick and frelly thought it looked like a hot dog!

tiny dancers...
recital week is like running a mini-marathon in our family...it can get a little nuts! this year was gracy's 4th dance recital...and we could not be more proud of her! this was faith's 1st dance recital, and we are so proud of her too. it takes a lot of courage for these little ones to get up there on stage, and so fun to watch all their hard work over the past year come together in such a fun show...
