MartHin Luther King.....

At RyRy's school each grade puts together a program that they perform. This year the 2nd grade put on a performance on MartHin Luther King. Notice the extra 'H' in his first name. That is how she pronounces his name. It cracks us up everytime she says it. Don't you love her $40 dress we had to buy for the program? Yep, she had outgrown all the dresses she owned, and well, there weren't too many choices on a February Monday evening!

Lost In Cheer...

That is exactly where we have been. OMG! Between competitions, practice, jump class, and private tumbling lessons I feel like we are never at home. It has been a long couple of weeks. We went to Oklahoma City for ASC Nationals. The girls finished 4th! We had a great time, can't wait to go back. We tried to eat at Toby Keith's restaurant, but it was a 1 hour and 45 minute wait - I don't think so!




Then we had Cheer Power Nationals in San Antonio....which is usually my favorite competition, but not so much this year! B broke her foot and wasn't able to perform, so we had to get a last minute alternate...and well it wasn't the same! It didn't help that we had to turn around twice for things we forgot.....the last time we were all the way to Maypearl when we discovered I had forgotten to pack RyRy's uniform....ugh! Can't replace that at the Wal-Mart! The girls came in 5th out of 13, which was great considering that they had to re-work the routine in 3 days. I was so proud of them! Stupid Stupid ACE beat us by like 61 points....I really dislike those 'Cheerbots'! We were so excited to see Coach Kevin who was working as a spotter for Cheer Power......the girls really love him! I think they got him in a little trouble running up and hugging all over him.....but I guess that's what happens when you are fabulous! I don't have any pics of the parent challenge performance because, well I was laughing too hard to hold the camera. Scott & Cole came to prelims...I think he ran away as fast as he could......those cheerleaders are scary! Also have to say Happy Bday to Tiffany......hope you had a great time at your party! Wish I could have been there, but I was at Dick's....starving to death! RyRy's hat says "High School Musical Changed My Life"......that chick didn't know how true that my be......RyRy loves some HSM!



And mom did leave her house and go with us on both trips...but she is bailing on the last one! You can only get a hermit out of the house so much....then they start to melt or something! Quite frankly....I think she is over all of the Cheer Drama that goes on....who can blame her! Although, bitchy Lesa kinda likes the drama, cause that's really the only time I let her come out and play...otherwise I keep her shut up! LOL!
