Allie and all her besties cheered on the Youth Level 3 team, Rubies. Their pirate theme was ARRR-mazing! Partway through fall Allie was asked to join the Junior Level 4 team, Jade as a flyer. Crossing to two teams is a lot at times, but she committed to the hard work and dedication for the season.
This was our longest drive yet...all the way to the GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAINS!! When you have a cheer competition in Gatlinburg, TN at spring break, you make the most of it! We arrived late afternoon and headed to Laurel Falls to hike. The weather was a nice welcome from the cold Michigan spring we are used to.
We ventured over the longest pedestrian bridge in North America with some friends. We saw some great views of Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky Mountains.
More hikes in the morning with more friends and a hearty brunch at the famous Pancake Pantry.
We then enjoyed the beautiful views in the mountaintops at Anakeesta. We relaxed, we adventured, we indulged, we played. Something is just different about the sunset in the mountains.
