practically her entire life [Music] today is her last day at gymnastics she has a private lesson she's already said goodbye to all her friends she doesn't think she's going to see them again for a long time what she doesn't know is that we've actually arranged to have all her friends surprise her one last time so stick around because i think that's going to be pretty emotional all right here is sailor's story i was actually born in my parents bedroom and i've lived here my whole entire life ever since hudson and i were little i have so many memories here i'm moving to california next to the beach i don't really know if i want to move i kind of want to stay here i love where we live we always have so much fun here we always walk into town to get ice cream or play at the playground we live close to new york city and it's lots of fun there i don't know what there is to do in l.a i have so many memories in this house hudson and i are always together we do everything together we cook

favorite event is beam a few months ago i could only do a backhand spring on the very low beam with a few mats there so it was just like the floor and i would always miss my hands but now i can do it on the high beam with one mat so they really helped me doing that they're really good at coaches and if you don't do something correct they can keep making you do it until you do do it correct and i like doing tumbling on the floor and i love doing my front hamstrings and i really like it because like they're very strict there they're not me but they're really strict they push you to do a lot if i don't do something or if i accidentally mess up then they just tell me it's okay and they help me a lot i said goodbye to my friends and it was really sad because i'm gonna miss them a lot and i don't know when i'm gonna see them again i got each girl a gift these are awesome rompers from sally miller and so i'm gonna put it somewhere for when they come tomorrow so they can open it and see
