Releve

The girls had their first dance competition of the season this weekend.  Shelby has been working with one of the instructors for about a month now, learning a new solo routine.  Bless her heart, she was so scared that she was trembling and started to cry right before she performed, but she sucked it up and did it! I personally think she rocked it. 

 
 She got a blue diamond placement.
The other Onstage Soloist in the Mini and Jr. Divisions.
After the Solo competition, we did a little shopping and went to dinner. Then they got to do their all time favorite thing... stay in a hotel! HA! I don't know what it is about hotels, but my kids think they are the coolest thing in the whole world.  It was too late to swim by the time we got back to the hotel,  but they were up and in their swim suits by 6:30 the next morning, just waiting for the pool to open :-)

 Morgan saw this tree and yelled "Holy Crap Mommy look at the size of that pineapple" Yeah.... we don't have many palm trees in Cedar hahaha
After swimming and putting out a few fires, we made it to the competition.
I think they did fantastic. They got white diamond placements for both of their routines. In the first one, Morgan is in the front (Jazz is her thing; Shelby... not so much) Shelby is in the back and to the side. In the 2nd dance, Morgan is the one being lifted in the air, Shelby is the one doing the heel stretch. If you find them in the beginning, then you can follow them lol.



A friend wanted to see their hair for competitions, so here are a couple close up pics.

They had a blast this weekend. Morgan is still tired and grumpy, but she'll get over it. Shelby is already up practicing for her next solo competition.
