more snow!

another big snow, and it’s actually starting to feel like winter over the last few weeks. out early to explore a little with Mira before school, then back for another late sledding expedition after gymnastics practice.

artistic competition

out to Aurora for another meet, but this time for Mira’s other gymnastics team. impressive showing from all of the girls, and Mira placed 1st in floor and 2nd AA for her L3 Sr. group. back home just in time to shuttle the girls off to rhythmic practice.

rhythmic competition

drove to Palantine for the first competition of the year. Лена had 5 girls from her team competing, including Mira. everyone did great considering they’ve only been back in the gym less than 2 weeks since the last lockdown was lifted. Mira placed 4th AA in her L4 age group.

more sledding

it actually snowed! maybe 8-9” on top of the small amount we got a few days ago… great time sledding with the girls, Mira of course had a blast.

sledding

surprised Mira by taking her sledding after gymnastics. couldn’t let the snow go to waste after all. and not surprisingly, we were the only ones – first tracks!

Canvas

new game finally arrived. can’t even remember when I ordered it from Kickstarter, maybe April of last year? enjoying it so far, should be a fun weekend mastering it.
