2bits, 4 bits, 6 bits, a dollar
All for the Flyers
Stand up and holler!
(can you tell I was a cheerleader of the 80's)
I mean who doesn't want to spend their Sunday with hundreds of screaming girls in hoochie mama uniforms, and stage makeup that just makes me cringe. Despite all of that I have a ten year old who just absolutely loves cheerleading. From the tiny little outfits, to those outrageous facials, and even down to the tips of her spirit fingers (whoops my 80's is showing again). So today we headed to San Marcos, Texas to scream our little lungs out and to perform all kinds of tumbling and stunts that defy the laws of physics.
Out of the eight squads in their category of competition, theirs placed 1st! So we had to pose for tons of pictures. Oooh and Aaaah over the trophy, and best of all contemplate whether we want to take 18 girls to Disney World for the Final Competition.....because that is what 1st place landed them....an invitation into the national event.
So I have a blissfully happy 10 yr old, and I am surrounded by moms who are wondering which bank we should rob on the way home to fund this kind of trip in this kind of economy. Now that would be a great national news headline "Crazy Texas Cheer Moms Rob Bank to Pay for Disney Trip". If you have a better headline....I want to hear it.
