Back to Being a Stage Mom!

Ready or Not.... I am back to being a stage mom!! Making sure hair number 101 is in place...CHECK, applying stage cheeks....CHECK, running all over creation for competitions.....CHECK, and having my heart burst with pride watching my girls dance...CHECK!!!!

Shelby and I headed out Friday to Idaho for the Idaho State Competition. Just her and I!! The ride was fun...a lot of girl talk and dancing! We barely made it and the all-nighter began! She performed her solos Great!!! A little nervous getting back on the stage but she worked it out. She earned a medal and a 1st and 2 2nd's on her solo's. We ate a snack and anticipated her team dance. Her dance teacher is so awesome!! They always look so sharp and together with the most amazing dances! She performed her team dance with all the confidence that she has and then we awaited the results! By the time they announced the results there was only two members of the team still there....one of them was Shelby. Her team took an overall! Shelby got the trophy and got to keep it all weekend until she went to dance again on Thurs. She was so stoked!!!

The best part of her dance experience this year is her BFF is on her team! These two are the best of friends and have so many similar likes and characteristics! It really makes it fun for Shelby.

After the competition we headed to the hotel and we ended up eating dinner at 10pm. I think that is the latest I have ever eaten. Then off to the hotel....i so needed my bed. I handed the remote off to Shelby and I fell asleep......and amazingly slept in until 10am. What? I haven't done that since I was a teenager. We even missed breakfast! We drove home and had a lot of girl talk! Thanks for the great weekend Shelb!
