Valentine's Invitational

Since I want this blog to be all about our life, I will be posting about different accomplishments the kids have made. I hope you will all indulge me just a little with this proud mommy moment.  :)

This past weekend Brynn competed in her first away meet of this season.  We knew that she was showing improvement at practice and she also has been having private lessons each week, so we were hopeful that her scores would reflect that.  They most definitely did!

She scored 8.7 on vault giving her 3rd place, 8.8 on bars also for 3rd,  9.125 on beam, again for 3rd, here she is on beam right before she lunges into her handstand.  Awesome form!


And..... 1st place on floor with a 8.950!!!! We are SO happy for her!!!  Here's a couple of pictures.  This is how she begins her floor, in a straddle split switch to left leg split.


This is in the middle of her routine, part of her dance pass...


Here she is after she finished.  She knows she did great by her score, but had no idea she got 1st!


Her coach said she was a little disappointed she didn't get a 9.0 on floor, but we are still so happy for her!  

A proud moment as she was awarded the floor champion medal.


The team also received 1st place at the meet.   


Just a wonderful day for my sweet girl.  We are so very proud of her.  She works so hard every week at the gym and sometimes has to make sacrifices because of her schedule, but I know this makes it all worth it for her.  Right before she went to bed she said "Mommy, I'm a floor champion!!!"  Love!
