Well, after a VERY long break from blogging, I am back and ready to share what's been going on this whole time! I gave up the blogging a while back and tried switching to Facebook, but I am back now.

She continues to play soccer and dance (recital coming in June). The latest thing she's added to her schedule is gymnastics. She just started attending Gold Medal Gymnastics which is owned and coached by the 1996 Olympic Gold Medalist - Amanda Borden. I believe she has a knack for this sport and
