We just got back from our trip up to Oregon for the Emerald Team Challenge. We were up there from Thursday to Sunday. DD had to compete at 8am on Sunday and with the time change, it felt like 7am.
For our gym, this was considered a "team meet", which means the girls don't stay with their parents, they all sleep and eat together as a team. The parents can go, but the girls are with each other 100% of the time. Before the meet, the girls have to do each others hair and anything else that needs to be done. They depend on each other for everything.
They were so busy...on Thursday they went to the mall and a movie. On Friday they went on dune buggys! After that, they went to the mall....again! They competed on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning
As far as the meet goes, DD did fine on Beam, her floor was really good until she squatted on one of her passes. Bars were the usual mystery, but it's getting better and on Vault, she's still doing her level 7 vault.
