First competition

Yeah - I'm so proud of my little cheerleaders. Here we are at the parking garage for the Champion Cup Nationals. They were held at Old Dominion University with a policy of no camera's including video. Sorry everyone but this is my only shot from the day. I am waiting for the official photographer to update his website and hopefully there will be a few good shots of the girls to order. I did buy the video however so hopefully in a couple of weeks I can post their routine. If I can figure out how to copy just that portion. There was two tiny tot teams and our girls came in second. But they had a blast and so did John and I. John I am happy to report is one very proud cheer daddy! He even used the megaphone that Coach Theresa gave him.

Gigi & Gwenie

Almost have the splits - and she learned this on her own by watching TV of all things!

Cheer practice

The Benefit of showing up early is extra practice time with the Coach.

















And we're up - Gwenie is a flyer! On top of the pyramid.
















Two pyramids - with a lot of help from the coach.

Tivo is awesome

Every day I am learning more and more about tivo and I am loving it! Sorry McDonald's but they deserve the I'm Lovin' It slogan so much more! lol

11 days and counting!

I am so excited. The girls are about to go to their first competition in just 11 short days. At first we didn't know if they were even going to be allowed to go because they're not ready. I wanted them to do it either way because they're a bunch (9 at the newest count) of 4 and 5 year old little girls who are used to practicing in a little gym and then stick them out on a huge competition floor with a lot of people screaming and yelling and bright lights.... well I'm sure you get the picture. So keep your fingers crossed for them and I'll post the results. Plus I'm sure a cute picture or two of them in their uniforms.
