Avynlea had one last cheer performance in her Middle School Cheer career and it was to perform at the ISAT Testing Pep Rally. I though it was funny that they had a Pep Rally for testing but also thought it was kind of cool to try to pump the kids up to be excited about doing well on their tests.
Avynlea and her squad did a Super Hero Cheer/Dance and she did a great job. I loved watching her! She is the cheerleader on top on the Left.
After the performances she along with staff and the other cheerleaders threw boxes of Red Hots out into the crowd of Middle Schoolers. It was all good times.
The next day was the cheer and dance clinic put on by the High School Cheer and Dance teams. She said she was pretty nervous stunting with the other girls in the clinic because they had no idea what they were doing. The clinic was held for three hours in the morning and then they performed at the Dance Teams spring show that afternoon. Avynlea said she did terrible but I thought she did a good job considering the amount of time they had to learn their routines.
She is the top girl on the Right
While they were waiting for their turn to perform, Kara, the cheer coach asked one of the boy cheerleaders to ask Avynlea if she wanted to try a Partner Stunt. Avy was a little hesitant at first but then agreed to it. After a couple of tries she was able to do it and really enjoyed it. Some of the other cheerleaders told Avynlea that it would be a really good thing if she can do partner stunts at the cheer tryouts and to practice with the guys at open gym.
I think it is cool that she is learning new things but it does make me very nervous for what is to come.
