I am proud to say that her team came in 2nd and are moving on to the State competition being held on April 17th. It was a long day for all of us. We left the house at 8am and got home about 8:30pm. Part of the competition is behind closed doors. The parents actually only get to see the kids for about 10 minutes. The rest of the day was spent watching other teams perform and enjoying the company of other parents and friends. They had "trading" for the kids which consisted of all the kids in the gym trading their treasures for other treasures. A DJ played music during the trading which lasted over two hours. Ashley started with nothing and came home with a bag full of goodies.
When Nicole's team came out to perform, I stopped breathing. I was so nervous for them! Her team has 2 wonderful coaches who really care about the kids and have made this a great experience for her. DI teaches kids that with teamwork and dedication you can achieve anything you want. What a great program!
