February Cheer

February was full of cheer.  We were in Cincinnati once and Columbus twice(actually I think once was early March, but they were back to back weekends!).  It was hotels every weekend forever.  It seemed overwhelming looking at the schedule, but it made the long winter months go fast and forced us to spend a lot of family time!

Cincinnati was a one day competition, but the girls competed on opposite days(all the eye rolls).

We were able to have a fun dinner out with a bunch of other families in our shoes with kids on different days!  Spending time outside the gym is so fun for the girls.

Sof had a quick one day comp that was local.

  Then it was off to Columbus.

Another fun weekend and night out with cheer friends.

We left knowing we’d be coming back the next weekend!

The next weekend was wildly successful.  Both teams won their division and earned rings.  Sof’s team won jackets for being the overall winners.  Winning isn’t everything, but I have to admit, it’s really fun!

This was another competition where each girl competed once on different days.  Luckily Sof went first so she was able to swim that night!

Lexi’s team also had a great performance that won them rings.

I think we went like 6 weekends in a row with cheer competitions, but looking back we had so much fun.  So much work goes into these routines, so it’s always a treat to see them compete(especially when the scorecard works in their favor!).
