    Yes, the cocktails were a definite plus last time... Although I am pretty sure the kid who almost got my beer dumped on her head didn't think so.

    WAG Greensboro Gymnastics Invitational Feb 12-14 2016

    That's right, it was a Wednesday.. I remember being there in the afternoon on a week day but was thinking it as Friday.. Now that you said Wednesday it all came back.. We actually left and drove back for the Nastia and American Cup instead of her missing several days of school. Ugh

    Parents Balancing gymnastics and academics

    Up until this year my Dd has done a good job of getting her work done. In in the past she wasn't getting a lot of HW but this year it has been grueling. She leaves for practice right from school and doesn't get home until almost 10:00 pm. Then she generally has about 1.5 to 2 hours worth of HW...
