Hi everyone!
It's been great keeping up with the meets and how everyone is doing. It's been hectic here and I haven't gotten to post much. We just got back from the Huntsville Invite and I am so very proud of DD that I had to share.

She had a rough meet in NC about 3 weeks ago (mistakes on beam and bars, tough scoring) and at first was upset with herself. I highlighted what she had accomplished (finally did a FHC in competition, much better ROBHS) and we talked about everyone having a "rough meet". Well, she went back into the gym more determined and this last weekend was the result. She went clean on beam (which I was so nervous, forgot to tape ) and did all the elements on the bars (score: 8.625-highest she's gotten)! She also got her highest AA score so far (35.375) and this will be the score submitted for the state. She couldn't stop smiling all the way home. I think the thing I am proudest of is not her placement, scores or medal but how she bounced back from a rough meet. Gymnastics really isn't for the faint-hearted, is it?
