New cheer teams!

Last night Coach Ashley called and told us Ava made Power Mini level 1 and Hannah made Mighty Youth level 2. I am so proud of them both! They will not be on the same team this season. So we will be spending more time at the gym. Hannah is so excited! Youth is 9 to 11 year olds so She can't wait to fly again.

Wednesday evening the kids and I drove to Atlantic a little over an hour away from Ankeny, To meet Mom and Dad for dinner. We ate at Weitzels Restaurant. It was great to see my parents.
