Biggest Accomplishments: Cami broke her arm last May, and got her first and hopefully only cast! She wore it for about 2 months I think, and sported bright pink because they ran out of blue. :) She was a beautiful ballerina in her ballet recital in June, and one of the most graceful ones up there! She joined a soccer team with her kindergarten buddies Teague and Beckett, and has really learned and improved a lot over fall and spring seasons! We LOVE watching her play- she has such energy and enthusiasm. She lost her first tooth last summer, and has now lost 4 total. Both front teeth! She made it into the ALPS (Advanced Learning Placement) program, and was able to be in her uncle's class this year! She learned how to ride a bike (that might've been before last birthday), made good new friends like Payton and Audrey in school this year, had an awesome Inside Out themed birthday, went on her first CRUISE and went out of the country for the first time! She loved Mexico, and loved staying at Ari's house and getting to go to Disneyland. Got a dog and then a trampoline- this girl is in Heaven!!
