Our last cheer competition this year was at Myrtle Beach again, a friend watched Amber for the weekend which allowed us to concentrate on just Jade, can't wait till she is old enough to enjoy these competitions, actually she does enjoy them but they are just soooooo long that it's too much for her when she is so little, I actually think they are too much for Dave too sometimes but I totally love them :-)
Anyway they did great on the first day, yes it's a two day competition, the first days points, mmmm I can't remember now but think the first days points count for say 25 % of the their final score and the rest is made up on the second day. Well our girls had done amazingly all season, we weren't sure of a first place but we were hoping for one of the top two spots for sure but sadly as well as they did on the first day, the second day was disastrous :-( they had never dropped a stunt but that day they dropped their pyramid which is so bad, Jades base team actually held their flier up and they did so well but this big error in their routine threw all the girls off so much that even when it came to the running and tumbling pass, Jade messed up, she still did all her tumbling perfectly but left out one of her back handsprings which would not lose the team points but it might have helped them pick up a few more where they had lost it in the pyramid stunt. Anyway they didn't make first or second :-( but the girls had an amazing season together and as parents we are all very proud of them all.
This competition was bitter sweet for us, we were excited to move onto CAC (Charlotte Allstars) and bigger and better competitions but we had been with WAA for two years and we loved our coaches and well it was our first cheer team, we had fun with them, that was for sure. We will miss them all. Most of the girls moved on too but none of them landed up in Jades new squad this year.
Here are a couple of pictures from this last competition.
Think this was taking on the morning of the second say ... sorry deals will be a little vague when I am writing all this from so far back.
These three girls have been together the past two years, Cadey is sadly not doing cheer anymore but Laurin is with the same gym but in a different team to Jade.
Some sassy cheer faces :-)
Jade and Laurin both lifting their flier, Kaley is also with CAC now but all three girls are on different teams.
Some sassy moves ...
See if you can find Jade ...
All three coaches.
REMEMBER TO SCROLL UP AND DOWN AS I WILL BE ADDING MANY PICS OVER THE NEXT WHILE. MAKE SURE YOU DON'T MISS ANYTHING.
