Nicole Wins Gold

icole competed in Missoula last weekend. She has only one more competition left this year - the state meet in two weeks. This weekend was exciting for her as she came home with 8 golds and 1 bronze. She is a level 7 competitor and moves on to the 8th level after state.

She won first place on the bars, the beam, the floor routine, the vault, and overall for level 7. Then she placed first overall for all levels on three of the routines and 3rd overall on another.

Every meet is different and the group of girls performing vary. This was a nice shot in the arm as state meet will have more competition next week. Have fun Nicole!

Kendal's 31st Birthday

endal turns 31 and here we sit without a camera - only a cell phone! Well, a little distortion doesn't diminish the birthday or years.
In a few more days Kendal and Lynsey will be celebrating their 5th Anniversary! Now, I think these years are going way too fast.

The Grand March

essa and Nicole represented the Level 7 team for Avant Coeur, their gym in Coeur d'Alene. The competition was called 'Battle in Seattle', sponsored by Harley-Davidson.

All the gymnasts wore glasses which had flashing lights all around each frame. They did the grand march in the dark so all you saw was flashing lights. It was pretty and fun. Then the over-head lights came on and each team was introduced.
