Back at it

Our second competition was not so good. Five minutes before we went on, we discovered that something had messed up with the recording of our music.  With no time to change it, we went out there and didn't do too badly.  But our timing was really thrown, so a lot of things we were really good at ended up looking sloppy.  It was kind of depressing, knowing how well we were capable of doing and not getting to put it out there.

Apparently parents at competitions don't get to actually compete.  We get marked, but the marks aren't compared.  I don't think that's fair; we pay the same entry fees as every one else.  I mean, the only other levels like this are the special needs team and the 4 year olds!  Honestly, I think we can take it...

Anyway, we were back to practice tonight and it was a blast, great to see everyone after two weeks off for Christmas break.  Nice practice, just trying out some new stunts and some work on tumbling....
