Cheer Season is in Full Swing

 

All of their hard work is finally paying off as the Shining and Shooting Stars kicked off their competition season in Cincinnati at the beginning of the month.  Quinn has been practicing three nights a week since May for both teams and now she gets to do her favorite part of cheer:  the competitions.  She loves working with her teams, the loud music, excitement, and sense of accomplishment she has as she runs off the stage at the end.  You can see how much she loves it through her smile as she performs and she has the best group of friends competing alongside of her that makes it even more special.

We opted not to spend the night in Cincinnati so we had to get up early and that means the makeup was put on in the car.  It actually turned out better than I thought it would.

Quinn and her little (cheer) sister, Lucia.  Quinn loves having a younger teammate who can look up to her.

                      

The Junior team earned first place and brought home a couple more flags for the gym.

Looking forward to a busy competition season ahead!
