we are back from vegas, and my ds's first gymnastics meet ever. He was very nervous, but he said he had lots of fun. If you remember, last Tuesday night at practice, he injured his foot and ended up at urgent care getting xrays. Turns out it wasn't broken, but he had pulled a tendon, and it hurt like crazy. We didn't think he would even end up competing. But, he felt good enough to go, and he didn't even need to scratch any events!
We stopped and walked around on the Hoover Dam and saw the new Memorial bridge...I think Christian was the most impressed with that!! Vegas was crazy, and really, I'm in no hurry to go back, lol! But...it was a great experience, and I know he will always remember it!!
He really struggled with the pommel horse...something that I guess will just come with time and practice. He has only been on the team since October...about 3 months now. And he just started Gymnastics a year ago in late December.
Everything else, though, I thought he did really well on, and he was pleased with himself...6th place all around.
and Vitaly Scherbo himself handed out the medals. Pretty cool!!
