Kate competed in her first gymnastics competition yesterday afternoon and did great! While she didn't place in her group, the experience was positive and she's excited to do it again next year. Plus, she was awarded a cool medal. This year was more of a learning experience anyway as her instructor asked last week if she wanted to perform a more difficult routine that incorporated back handsprings (which she just learned). Of course she said yes and while her legs need some straightening on her back handsprings, she was able to finish the routine and complete all of the required elements. To make the afternoon even better, Grandma Toni was able to watch.
