We Bought a House...Sort Of!

This little beauty is all ours!!  For about another month until we tear it down!!  Looking forward to the next chapter in the Hammerick book of adventures...on Cooley Lake!

 

Ch-ERIE-ing in PA

Another cheer COMP-CATION with cheer besties!  Lots of fun at photo shoots around town and on the lake.  Rubies and Topaz both competed, but on separate days...and they both HIT!  Way to go, girls!

 

 

 

Easter

 

St. Patty's Day

Lucky visited and left us some goodies...he dodged Allie's trap!  ...and we sipped a delicious Shamrock Shake as we always do on St. Patty's Day.

 

Cheer Derby

When in Louisville...you visit Churchill Downs, home of the Kentucky Derby!  These little ladies learned all about the Derby, it's famous horses and jockeys.  We had fun touring the racetrack and learning about it's history with our fancy MCC derby hats! The mom's sipped mint julips while the gals practiced their horse riding skills...riding on each other's backs!

 

 

Second to performing while at travel comps...and visiting the local attractions...is staying with one of your cheer besties!

Unfortunately Allie's teams didn't place as well as hoped...but they sure did put on a great performance on at least of the days for each of her teams.  Because Michigan sports are at such a disadvantage this year, we are just thankful for the time we are allowed to practice and perform.  This year's goal: don't get last!  At HIT is a win in my book!

 

Wisconsin Dells

I've always wanted to go to the Dells...but not in the middle of the winter!  There are so many things to do...IN THE SUMMER!  Allie's cheer competition brought us to the Dells this cold frosty weekend.  The girls looked great competing.  Although us parents were only allowed to watch our athlete's team, I'm just thankful we were able to watch at all!  Rubies looked amazing on the mat...even in those masks.

While there, the girls had time to bond on a trolley tour around town to see some local sights...and of course sign on the bus to each location.  

 

Because we were in the WATERPARK CAPITAL OF THE US...we decided to stay and play an extra day at the Wilderness Resort with other cheer friends.  The girls, and Ayden too, had a blast on the slides and pools...and NO ONE GOT COVID!  Thankful for a little bit of normalcy and FUN this weekend.  Look!  No masks!!
