Gymnastics part one

Today was a very big deal around here.  All week we have been limping through with allergies and other bugs trying to bring us down, and Sweetness still wasn't feeling 100%, but today was a day NOT to be missed.

It was gymnastics!  Sweetness participated in the showcase, where each class gets to show new skills they have been learning and learn a little routine.  She received ribbons and "scores", it was all about fun and the judges were older team gymnasts.

 Warming up on the beam. She missed practice yesterday so it was a quick run through of some of the key parts.

CJ had her first ever mock meet with real judges and being judged like at a real meet.  She did fantastic! Nerves and all!  As I tucked her into bed Friday night, I reminded her that it was about having fun and doing her best and that is what mattered.  Her reply,"and to get practice doing a meet before I go to U of A".  Well, I think she might have a few more meets to practice through before she'll be on the U of A team, but the girl has goals!  She also missed practice on Tuesday due to a fever and was still pretty worn out at Thursday's practice, so proud of how well she did as well, and she had a ton of fun!

This is part one. I do have video this year, but I need to process it before I get it loaded on here. That just means, you'll have to check back if you want to see the girls in action!
