Way to go Emily! :) A 36.4 aa is terrific... and considering she had a fall, that is really awesome! Congratulations on her two personal bests as well. 1st on floor must have been a super moment, and 4th AA is fabulous.

My daughter has been involved in team gymnastics for the last 3.5 years, and is currently in the middle of her level 6 season. I've always...
I may be wrong, but it sounds like they are squeezing money out of you. No way would I pay for a meet, and travel 2-3 hours, for my daughter to compete one event. Did you have to pay, in advance, for all of the meets you were attending this season? By having the girls compete one event, your...
