Lexi's Dance Competition


WHAT A DAY!!!
Shining Stars - Silver competed at a dance competition at Leander High School on January 21st, 2006. Her team won 3rd in Jazz, "Rockin' Robin", second in Pom, "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah" and a 1st division trophy in pom (their scores were 90 or higher). It was a long and stressful day (and we didn't even have to get there until 2pm,... I can't imagine the moms and kids that had to be there at 8am!!). It was only stressful because to make sure all of the girls had all of their costumes on and make-up done right. Plus,... we did NOT have A/C in our theatre room. When we asked about it, they brought us 2 box fans. Imagine 100 girls (gold and elite were in there too), plus a mom for each one... eeewwww!






Here is Lexi with her friend Madeline. Looking SO cute!!






Coop got to wear his "Lexi supporter t-shirt". VERY cute!! He actually did better than we all expected... he danced on the side-lines with all of the teams!! Didn't make it to the awards ceremony, but it also was past his bed-time.




Here we all are after competition at our house. Lexi had only one crying melt-down (did not understand why she did not get to take home a trophy) and not too sure why Coop was still awake! We were all exhausted!!



I would like to thank everyone who came to watch Lexi: Aunt Suzie, Grandma Cissy & Big Daddy, and Granny & Grandaddy. I would also like to thank everyone that wishes they had been there, but weren't able to make it. You know who you all are!! We are blessed to have so many wonderful friends!
All I have to say is,... THANK GOODNESS Lexi only has one competition a year!!

Lexi looks so cute all fixed up for competition and Cooper is too precious with the Lexi supporter shirt! Congrats to her for doing so awesome with all of their dances. And congrats to you for making it through the day- because I know that's a lot of work getting costumes ready, putting on make-up, and practicing beforehand.
