Cheerleading practice/camp

Savannah signed up for cheerleading this year. She was a jr novice cheerleader for the Big Valley Sabres! I signed up to help coach and ended up the head coach of her squad 2 games into the season. It kept us very busy but we both had a great time! I was so proud of savannah. I forget sometimes because she is my most challenging child, that in comparison she is really a great kid. She was one of only a handful of girls that never complained about being hot or tired. She tried really hard and had fun! We had a little trouble keeping focused sometimes but age was also the youngest of all the 30 or so girls out there.
Cheer camp was a long hot day but it was really fun. We learned new dances, jumps, and cheered a lot. The girls got to dress me and the other coaches up very silly for a parade and we decorated our area up for a contest. Each cheerleader and coach got the chance to win ribbons for skills in different areas. Jumps, dancing, coaching, stunting(for the big girls), and all around.
