On Friday we celebrated Savannah's Gymfest Gymnastics Show at her gymnastics school.  We were so proud of her accomplishments, just since January.  She did such an awesome job and showed so much confidence.  She had a lot of fun too. It was a joy to watch her.  It was very difficult to take pictures due to the lighting (it is dim in there and it was a gray and rainy day so there was no natural light either), it was far away for a point and shoot camera, and Savannah was a constantly moving target.  This was the best I could do.  It was so much fun and Seth definitely wants to take gymnastics too.

After her show we went out to dinner at Puket.  It is the best Thai restaurant EVER.  While we were eating it was pouring rain.  When we came out there was a huge rainbow.  How beautiful is Mother Nature?

The next day we had a glorious time at the beach.  Now today we will celebrate Father's Day.
