Gymnastics Christmas Display

Niamh and Jude had a lot of fun and excitement at their Christmas displays this year. Niamh's display had a Christmas theme and they were all dressed as little elves. It was quite a heavy schedule for Niamh as she had two displays each evening for three nights in a row and only got to bed around 11 each night and still woke up the same time the next morning so I think she did feel quite tired.
Girls mini squad. (Niamh is middle row, second from the left, you can click on the image to enlarge it).
Niamh was very chuffed to get her photo taken with Olympic athlete Becky Wing!

The following videos are not very good quality, Mike took one and I took the other. Mike did not know where Niamh was on the floor so took a few seconds before he focused properly on her. Ciara was on my lap when I was taking the other video and so it is quite bumpy at the beginning, plus I couldn't get a clear view of the display without people from the crowd in. Jude's uploaded with no sound, so will have to redo his.



Our decoration today was:

Journey to Bethlehem

“ But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
Though you are little among the thousands of Judah,
Yet out of you shall come forth to Me
The One to be Ruler in Israel,
Whose goings forth are from of old,
From everlasting.” Micah 5:2

"And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem , because he was of the house and family of David, in order to register, along with Mary, who was engaged to him and was with child." Luke 2:4-5
