gymnastics party

The kids' cousin A, turned 7 in the beginning of October.  She had a gymnastics party that both K & T had a ball at.  I think it's really cool to watch K & T learn new skills, to see what they are interested in, and what they are naturally good at.  Maybe it's this way for parents who birth their children, but I find it so fascinating about K & T, and because they are adopted, there's a bit of a mystery to their natural talents.  Both kiddos had lots of fun running, jumping, climbing, turning, flipping, twisting, and partying it up to celebrate A.  Happy birthday!

Listening to the rules of the evening.  K has the purple sleeves on the left, and T is in an orange shirt in the center.
Jumping hula hoops.

I'm sure everyone slept like logs after this party, K & T certainly did.  Happy Birthday Miss A, we love you!
