Fun Weekend

We had a lot of fun this weekend. Our niece, Megan, is a freshman at UCLA. She called us last week and asked if she could come down and spend the weekend with us. So Friday night she took the train down and we picked her up and went out to dinner.


Saturday morning Grace started her gymnastics class at the YMCA. Last spring we did gymnastics at My Little Gym and it was great. I was wondering how gymnastics at the YMCA would compare. We decided to try the YMCA because it is a lot closer to our house and it is cheaper. With that in mind I didn't think it could possibly be as good as My Little Gym, I was very wrong. Gymnastics at the YMCA was TERIFFIC!!!! First of all, the class only had 5 kids in it, compared to 20 in the class at My Little Gym. Second, the class was more structured so the kids had very specific things they were supposed to do on each apparatus. At the end of class they were allowed to play on whatever they wanted. Grace did so great on everything. She especially suprised me when she jumped into the foam pit with nobody catching her. All of the other parents had to get in and have their child jump to them or hold their hands while they jumped. Not my Gracie, she jumped right in ... again and again. I was such a proud mamma.



On Sunday we went to brunch down at the beach. After eating we took off our shoes and rolled up our pants and went galavanting in the sand ... and a little bit of water. It was fun to be out on the beach in the middle of winter. I love San Diego!!
