Tumbling

In April, Chase and Cody started a tumbling class. The class had only 3 session left and I wanted to see if they would like it. Our friends, Grace and Spencer was in the class also. The 4 of them had a blast together doing somersaults and head stands.


The best part is the free time where there is like an obstacle course with a trampoline, balance beam, tunnel, back bend stuff, jumping things and the cheese wedge for doing somersaults. They kids just run around and have a good time doing what they want!


Chase and Cody really like the balance beam. They get on it and can walk forward and backwards, stand on one foot and kick with the other foot, do dip downs and jump off!


Int he beginning of the class, Mrs. Jill, warms up the kids by doing fun exercises to music. They boys really think it is fun!

Shaky fingers and popping fingers is one of the warm up songs.

After those 3 classes were over, Grace and Spencer, couldn't go to the next session, but Cash and Jack could so now we are doing 6 sessions of the same thing and having just as much fun!!
I don't think either of them will be Olympic gymnastic stars, but for the time it fun to take them and they go to sleep early that night because they are super tired!

Oh how fun! I am loving that first picture where you can tell one of your boys has a HUGE smile on his face :)

As per your previous post... glad I am not the only one who wasn't feeling all that motivated to blog. UGH Sometimes we really do need a break.
