Wow! Even as a mostly lurker, occasional poster I suffered! I've been sitting in a hospital since before the site went down and boy did the break hurt! I'm SO glad we're back up and running and my life can return to normal, whatever that is, lol!
Happy posting everyone!
It sounds like Dani is doing amazing. How awesome that her AA score continues to improve with each meet. She must be working hard to clean up the deductions. I bet we'll hear great things from her state meet!
And as for the ballet...well, I can't think of anything that would be more...
Wow, What a tough meet, when the scores don't line up with the quality of the routine. That has to be discouraging for baby bog. Congratulations to her for having a good attitude about the whole thing, and being mature enough to enjoy gym for the sake of gym, rather than the scores.
Any vids...
Wow! Jfish, you've done it again! Thank you very much for taking the time to post for me. I saw 2 meet updates of Bean's posted by you and it means a lot to us.
Some of you may remember that I'm dealing with health issues right now, and unfortunately, they tend to keep me from posting. I...
Oh, we feel your pain. Bean missed 2 of the last 3 weeks with flu that developed into pnemonia. She was out for a week, back for 3 days, then out for another week. She returned last Saturday and hacked her way through practice and went to bed at 6, as soon as she got home. Monday was a bit...
That was awesome! You are a beautiful gymnast, and watching is inspiring!
Thanks for posting video, you should be very proud of your accomplishments in this sport. When I'm at my computer, I'll subscribe so we can continue to follow your gymnastics journey!
What a great 1st meet! She should be proud.
Leadership is a lovely quality that very few possess. To have it identified and have an opportunity to develop it is wonderful. Congrats to your little girl, I'm sure given time to grow in the role, she'll exceed everyone's expectations:)
You are definitely a cool dad! I was talked into sitting through an extra flight of a competition once, so Bean could cheer on her teammates. It was the 1st, and likely the last time I'll ever do it! My bum was numb (love the bleacher seating..lol) my eyes were bleary, and even as an avid gym...
Welcome to the board! I my dd just turned 11 last week and is competing level 8. We have to wait until December, so another mom living through other people's kids, lol.
I'm sure you'll enjoy it here and I'm looking forward to hearing about your girls!
Welcome to Chalkbucket! I can't imagine having to fly to all meets. It's pretty safe to say that our family wouldn't be involved in the sport if that was the case. Good for you for finding an activity your little one loves and finding a way to make it happen:)
I'm looking forward to...
Congratulations Cait!! What terrific scores for that notoriously low scoring level. Especially given that the focus of her training has been elsewhere.
She has worked so hard over the past few months and it's now paying off. It's beautiful to watch what can be accomplished with some God...
Aweome news! I love hearing a meet report that starts off by saying the child had a "blast"!! That's really what it's all about, right?
She's going to be serious competition for the girls in your area, she's really started off strong! Congratulations on the great meet, great hair, and...
Aww! She looks beautiful in her new leo. Her appearance is graceful, even in a still shot! I'll bet she's just gorgeous to watch.
When Bean moved up from invitational to Provincial level (you have to be 9yrs old to be in the Provincial Stream here) she was far more excited by the fancier...
Awesome, awesome, awesome!! Emma looked wonderful out there doing her thing! Her bars were gorgeous, and she looked strong on all events:D. She sure flew over that vault table!
What a great showing from one so young (and tiny!). She should be very proud of herself, and mom should be proud...
Beautiful routines! Congratulations on the fantastic meet, she's delightful to watch!
Your coaches must put a lot into training the details, it sure makes for lovely gymnastics!
It's great to hear your enthusiasm for your little sister's new adventure! She's lucky to have you for support.
I hope you'll come back and give us an update on her first class and keep us informed as she progresses. I love hearing about the little ones in the gym!
