Yesterday, was a huge day for Miss. Addison Jane! She competed in her very first gymnastics meet. Okay, well I wouldn't really call it a competition. Maybe, more like a bunch of 3 year olds jumping up and down, following the coaches instruction. :) Although, I was very impressed with the organization of the meet. They split the girls, all ages 3 - 5, up into 6 different groups so that there were 6 events going on simultaneously.
Mark and I put Addison in gymnastics when she was just 18 months old and I just can't believe how far she has come. She's not doing back handsprings or anything but I can see major improvements in her skills and more importantly her attitude! The coaches at her new gym do an awesome job promoting a "CAN DO" attitude. We ALWAYS say I WILL TRY and never (well ALMOST NEVER) say I CAN'T. I'm so proud of Addison and know that her Daddy would have been is extremely proud of her as well. I wish he could have been there!
Here are some good old FLASH BACK photos (gotta love the point and shoot camera) of Addison in Gymnastics:
And now look at her at her very first Gymnastics Meet:
Lillian can clapping for Addison! YAY!
Awesome job Addison! I will always be your number one fan!

Congratulations on a SUPER meet.
Those are great pics...I can't believe how little she was back then! Of course, now she's "a big girl...not a little girl". Love her!
I love the little trip down memory lane! Addie has come such a long way she looked like she had a blast... tell her again how proud we are of her.
