In Febuary Mattie & I loaded on a bus with the cheer squad, parents & coaches for our 12 hour bus ride. Mattie's middle school cheer squad received a bid to the National Cheer Competition in Orlando, Florida. We were gone six days! We were supposed to leave on a Thursday morning but due to the awful weather conditions heading our way we had to leave 3pm on Wed. This was with a 2 hour notice! They wanted to get through Atlanta & stay somewhere for the night. This really through me for a loop! I was planning on having another evening with my other kiddos & Doug. I have such difficulty leaving them & this was just the icing on the cake. In the craziness of all of this I forgot pajamas, toothbrush & deodorant! I didn't realize this until we stopped for the evening. With no car to take me to a Wally World or Target I was pretty much up a creek! Thank goodness I had sweats & once we got to Orlando I was able to buy deodorant & toothbrush at the hotel gift shop.
Mattie & I had a fabulous time at Disney! It was strange being there in Febuary! We have always been in the summer. The weather was cold & no crowds or waits at all! The competition went fairly well. The girls did the beast they could do. Although the didn't advance it was overall a great experience.
