We went out with a bang!

Cheer Intensity All Stars went out with a bang. We had a great weekend last weekend in Sydney and came home with the 1st place banner for Sr. 3! It was a very exciting and emotional weekend. Sunday's awards brought lots of smiles and lots of tears too, since it was the end of Cheer Intensity. After awards we had the long drive home, Bethy, who came and spent the weekend with us, drove to Port Hawkesbury then I drove the rest of the way, with 2 short stops, we got home around 12:10am, not too bad. It was great having Beth with us for the weekend. With her living 6 hours away we don't get to spend any amount of time together so it was a nice visit. Kinda sucked going all the way to Cape Breton and not getting to see the touristy places, I'd like to go back up for a weekend and see all the things we didn't get to see.

Today we had a short "practice" to end CIA's year. Was pretty laid back. Some of the team went out for lunch but since I had made an appointment to have Josh's grad pictures done this afternoon, we came home, which was just as well. Most of the kids are going to the city for cheer on the Elite team and Brea isn't going so I thought it was better just to bring her home. It bothers her more when the other kids are talking about it so coming home was a good idea.

Brea did start riding lessons yesterday, she's been asking for 5 years or so but now that she's done cheer till fall, if she goes back at all, I let her start riding. She loved it yesterday, she looked like an old pro by the end of the hour. I always loved horses too, I asked for 1 every year for Christmas but never got it. LMAO

Anyway, it's Survivor night so it's time to get the munchies ready!
