Gym Meet in KC

 Maddie had a gym meet last weekend in Kansas City.  The entire quarantine, leading up to the meet, we didn't know if her coaches were going to let her compete or not.  They are super strict about the week of the meet.  If the girls aren't at practice every night the week leading up to the meet, they are not allowed to compete.

Maddie had missed two weeks due to our quarantine.  She was able to practice Friday and the meet was Sunday.  They told her she was allowed to compete, but to not be upset or disappointed in her scores, since she hadn't been at practice in a while.  She agreed, and was just so happy that they were going to let her go!!!  

We left Saturday afternoon and rode there with another teammate and Mom (Quinn and Carrie).  The girls had the best time with each other.  We then got to the hotel, checked in, the girls swam for about an hour, we ordered food, ate dinner in the lobby, and headed up to go to bed.  We had to be up by 6:30 the next morning.  

Overall, all things considered, she did pretty well in her meet.  She got 3rd  place all around.  Placing in every event but beam.  The 1st and 2nd place all arounds, were teammates of Maddie's that are in their second year of level four.  Maddie was very very happy where she placed.  And honestly, I thinks he would have been thrilled even if she didn't place.  She had fun and had a smile on her face the entire weekend!  


Scores: Bars 9.1
