Syncronized Ice Skating Colonials

This past weekend Cutie participated at Colonials. http://colonialclassic.org/
The weekend was fun. She got to stay in a hotel with her friends. I freaked out once because I couldn't find her. They had 1 practice, 1 offical practice and finally the performance. They messed up official practice with a big pile-up, but I think it was because the ice at the Tsongas center is slow (not cold) Her beginner team came in first.

I think the most educational moment of the weekend came when the Skyliners senior team was performing and in the middle of the performance there was a power outage. When the generator kicked in and the team slowly came into focus, they were in a perfect circle. It was so cool.

Unfortunately grace under pressure doesn't win if the next team is spectular. The Haydenettes senior team was amazing. We are talking standing ovation.
