We had to skip Claire's gymnastics class on Friday in order to attend Sesame Street live so we decided to attend the Saturday am class.  The instructor was amused enough by Brenden and Todd she let them join in the class for bits and pieces.  They both really enjoyed the giant inflatable slide.  Brenden quickly figured out that sliding down on the side was the fastest way to go.  This from the kid who refused slides for years at the park.








A rather well executed cartwheel...much to my total astonishment.  He really wanted to attempt this on the beam...video will follow if that ever happens.  






Miche gives a little Hope to those with Cancer

Today I was selected to receive one of these amazing Miche bags with a Hope shell because of my work with children and families with cancer over the years. It was a very special moment and one that reminded me of how lucky I am to work with these incredible families...

Take a few minutes and watch the youtube video below about how Miche is spreading hope to those affected by cancer.

Today we had an impromptu trip to Alki beach...we can't wait for even nicer weather so next time we can get in the water!  There were a few tears when we had to leave but we ended strong with a good long run back to the car...kids are sleeping well tonight!
