A Star is Born

Animated

That was the term used by the acting coach of the local film camp jack attended to describe his style :)

Judge for yourself!


Bronwyn Lou Retton?

The hair is all wrong but the moves look good :)

Brownyn graduated from her current gymnastics class and begins a new level come fall!  

I am amazed at how much a 4-year old can learn in one season.  Her mom learned something too (that trying a cartwheel after 30 years is not prudent!  And if you try it against my advice at least remember to tuck your shirt in!).

Splash Splash

Swim lessons seems like a good thing to do the first week of summer vacation.  Bronwyn worked hard and played hard, too!

Practicing kicks.  Later she scolded her friend "you aren't kicking gracefully like a mermaid."
if her friend had a text bubble it would read 'pot calling the kettle...'  ;)

Singing in the Rain

More like Jumping in the Rain....

Bronwyn saw a few drops fall from the sky.  She ran upstairs.  Put her rain gear on.  And proceeded out the door to find the largest puddle in our driveway.

The thrills of being four!

Last Day of Preschool


Here she is...the preschool graduate.  Her "report card" came home with all Es for Excellence!  Her teacher's note says, "Bronwyn is a sweet, funny and an extremely smart girl.  She sometimes talks a bit too much."  Like mother, like daughter!


As a reward, I promised to let her pick out her own outfit for last day of school without restrictions.  She chose to glam it up with sparkles.  Here she is in all her sparkly glory!
