My DD and I are going to see the trials, along with several other families from our gym. She is so excited to be able to go.
 
Ya i really hope she'll go! I think she's going too! I might get to go to this but idk yet cause i have nationals like 4 days later so idk but i really hope so!!:p
 
I am in such agony over who I want on the Olympic team! Ugh! We so obviously know Shawn, Nastia, and Alicia, so that takes up half of the spots. I want Chellsie; I think her bars score could really help us (did you catch the 7.0 A score on night two?!?) So that's 4. I adore Sam Peszek, but I don't think she performed as well at these nationals as she has previously, so I think that could hurt her, but we'll have to see what she does at trials. Personally I love Ivana's gymnastics-she's so beautiful to watch. But does the US need her? Maybe, maybe not. She is not at all well-received by the judges...it's those handstands on bars, as in she needs to hit them. Who doesn't love little miss Shayla, but will her injury be resolved in time to be in full force for the games? I think Bridget Sloan is lovely as well, but does team USA really need another lukewarm bars and decent beam worker? Darling is great, but can the team really depend on her? My complete wild card will be Mattie Larson. Those are my thoughts.
