Finally! After years of hard work and waiting McKenzie finally had her first gymnastics meet! She's worked so hard to make it onto her gym's bronze team and now she gets to do the fun stuff! At home she practices parts of her routines in her room or in the family room. Of course, she says with a smile, it's not the same without the equipment. We picked up her team uniform a couple weeks ago and McKenzie couldn't wait until it was time to wear it. So many sparkles!
I dolled her up then sent her out the door with Jeremy (I had a volleyball game and soccer game to go to with the other kids). Jeremy sent me reports of how she was doing.
I love seeing her smile down there when she thinks no one is watching.
She scored a 8.65 on vault, 9.1 on beam, 9.1 on bars, and 8.7 on floor. She was pretty proud of herself. The icing on the cake was that she placed 5th on the beam and was awarded a medal at the end of the meet. She can't wait for her next meet in a couple of weeks.
