I’m an aunt again!!! My little sister gave birth to a gorgeous baby girl over the weekend. I’ll share some more pics after she does on her blog. I love her. FireCracker loves her. We are so thankful for a healthy new life in our family. My heart is so full.
Surprisingly enough, I have kept up with remembering to snap a daily Instagram pic with my phone. I’m ‘underthesycamore’ on Instagram. It has been fun at the end of each month to go back and look at all the little gifts that made up my month. Sometimes I snap a photo of a ‘big’ moment, but usually it is just the small stuff that makes life great.

We took the kids to the US Elite Trampoline and Tumbling Challenge. The boys decided the gymnasts were “way more awesome than jedis”. I think the last time I had been to that convention center was when I was competing as a gymnast. I’m only worried about two people in my family attempting anything we saw…me and my 5 year old. It kind of made me miss be 14….
