Track has started for this year. We have only had one meet so far, and that was at ISU indoor track. Our first actual track meet is during spring break but might get cancelled because so many girls are going to be gone on spring break. We have also already started open gyms for cheerleading for next years team. We have open gym every wednesday for 3 hours. There is a lot of new girls from crestwood and mayo going out this year. I think our teams will be very good next year and everyone is excited to go ahead and get started for pigskin! For spring break I am going to Florida with Kacey. We are going to Walt Disney World for one day and then to Panama Beach for eight days. I am really excited to be on the beach and to sleep in!!

Spring break!!

This year I am going to florida for spring break! Callie and I are going with kacey, her mom, nick, and clayton. We are going to walt-disney world for one day for kacey's little brother and his friend. Then we are heading to panama beach for 8 days! Im so excited for the weather, im tired of this cold, rainy, and snowy weather! We worked one day at the American Cancer Society so we got free passes for one day at disney world. I have never went somewhere during spring break, because i have always had track practice and track meets. But this year we have no track meets so my parents are letting us go!

I was absent on monday march 1, so that is why this post is late

Lent!

This morning, I went to church to go to mass for lent. Lent is a catholic "tradition" I guess, but during lent you have to give up something that is a bad habbit for you or something that you are addicted to. For instance a lot of people give up smoking, drinking, fast food, pop, candy, etc. I decided to try and have a better attitude about things and watch my language a little more. Lent last for forty days. And everyone keeps asking what is on my forhead, it is black ashs in the sign of the cross. Lent ends on easter and till then we can not eat meat on fridays, we are supposed to eat fish. Most little kids do not have to give up anything for lent and are allowed to eat meat on fridays.

State Cheer Competition!

Well last weekend we went to sectionals and out of our small team division of 10 teams we placed 2nd! We only lost by 4/10 of a point. At sectionals they take the top five teams, so we have advanced to state which is this weekend in Bloomington Illinois. At state we will compete on friday then from there they take the top ten teams, and whoever makes it past then moves on to saturday, which is where the final competition is. Our routine is flawlesS! After sectionals we had practice on Monday and changed a couple of things in our routine to make it harder and sharper in some areas. Our crowd at sectionals was amazing, I didnt think we would have that many people drive all that way to watch our girls perform. So at state we hope to get more support, cause they have worked so hard for this and it would mean a lot if people would come watch them!

Cheerleading Competition!!

This month has been very busy for the cheerleaders. We have practice everyday and since im an alternate I have practice and games on the same night. The varsity girls work extremely hard all year long to go represent our school at the state cheerleading competion. Our routine this year is our best one I think we have ever had! We also take tumbling classes and work out at curves to get stronger and improve our tumbling. Alot of hard work goes into making our routine the best in the state! Hopefully our girls will do great at sectionals and perform to their fullest and we will move onto the state competition! This weekend we perform in Highland and if we make it to state we will go to Bloomington. Hope everyone can come and support our school team!

*Snow Days*

During our snow days I went snowmobiling sledding and played in the snow with my nephew! I also babysat, watched my niece and nephew, and went skating in terre haute with all my friends and got hurt..then we went to arbys and had lots of fun!!!! I have missed kacey this week. It has been wierd without her here. She has been in colorado at a livestock judging competition, where her team placed 7th overall! I am looking forward to this weekend to hangout with sheyenne and probabally go skating again like a bunch of losers!! I am also excited to cheer for the girls game tonight that is a home game against Mt.Zion. We also have lots of cheer practice this week to prepare for our competition that is at the end of the month, and we have three games to cheer at this week, so busy!!!
