Today we were treated to another amazing Friday afternoon Acrosport show. This time the theme was “Ninjas”. Ella had an incredible week this week and she ended it with quite an impressive show. Ella took part in the aerial portion. She performed on the rope – something she calls “Spanish Web”. She did a fantastic job doing the “Spanish web” and even got herself out of a tricky situation where her wrist was a little stuck. She was so poised and so proud of herself.

Ninja Acrosport performance
Saturday, August 24th, 2013A beautiful 24 hours with Sakura
Tuesday, August 20th, 2013Ella and Sakura were able to spend Saturday – Sunday with each other. Sakura is now on her way back to Japan. They had such a wonderful time together. Ella seems pretty sad that Sakura is back in Japan. It’s pretty incredible to watch Ella and her very meaningful relationships with friends. Here are a few pictures from their special day.

Sakura brought this book for Ella from Japan. Ella took it and ran with it!

Ella as Mary Poppins
Monday, August 19th, 2013This was a crazy week coming back to reality. I started work the day after we came back and Ella went to Acrosport Camp with Juliet. Ella had a fantastic week and ended it with a little performance. Ella was picked to be Mary Poppins in a little acrobatic extravaganza that they put on. Check out the video!
