2009-2010 Capo Cheer Tryouts!

These past few weeks have been anything but hum-drum. The cheer banquet was a little over a week ago and it went great! All the girls LOVED their photo albums I made which was a huge relief and the banquet itself was alot of fun! This week Ali had cheer clinic which then led to cheer tryouts on Friday and results Friday night...so of course, Ali got sick. I had her scheduled to see a ear, nose and throat specialist because she has had tonsilitis for 3 months now and been on 2 different antibiotics with no results. That was on Monday of this week and we found out that she needs to get her tonsils out...yay!? So being the trooper she is, Ali did the whole week of cheer clinic with her throat hurting, a sinus infection, and her asthma being irritated by all that. In the end it was all worth it because she made the Varsity team! We are so proud of her and excited about her next season with an amazing group of girls. Most of whom were already on her team this past season but also some new girls that mesh really well with the rest. We had a small speed bump throughout the week with a mom wanting to cause drama from another team but fortunately she decided to take her daughter elsewhere and spare us the headache of dealing with her all year....thankyou! Well, Ali will most likely have her tonsils out in another week or so...we are just waiting on the results of some cultures that the dr. took from her nose (gross) to see what exactly she has and what meds she can take to clear it up before taking her tonsils out. Stay tuned...

FYI...this is what Jack insisted on wearing to the cheer tryout results.....a Superman cape that my mom had made for Ryan when he was Jack's age and this hat that I found at the Gap....great look don't ya' think? The girls like it! :-)
