Merry Christmas 2011

Thanks to all our family and friends who helped make Christmas very merry indeed. The Pietsch clan, with friend Holly, poses for a family photo in the middle of the morning mayhem.

More Aerial Silks

Aerial silks is turning into Tiernan's thing. She has been going once a week for several months now and is hoping to do a camp over Christmas break. A mix of gymnastics and art, the sport is pretty to watch. I made this picture the other day during a break from my primary job as her chauffeur.

Aerial Silks Class

Tiernan has been taking an aerial silks class at Bounce Gymnastics in Eugene off an on for a couple months now. The sport combines gymnastics, choreographed moves and artist expression into a thing of beauty.

I finally got to one of her practices with a video camera and here is the results!
