I think it was last year that she made an appearance.

I served in the Air Force in radar repair in the early seventies.

No one got hurt, so he didn't get to compete since they only use 6. If you go to his intruduction page on thier web site, he assisting my daughter on the beam, so she got a little unnamed fame from that.

My daughter and son-in-law are close friends with Scott and Daniela which is how I met her. I hope your daughter keeps up the good work because she can go far with gymnastics.

Yep, that was her, bandaid and all....lol

Wow, that is a lot of training. Is she going to jump from level 3 to a level 5? That is great for her if she can do it. I think at level 5 she can go on to regionals after the state meet. At least in Rhode Island they can because Ethan finsihed 2nd in state and went to Regionals and finished 6th overal. He took 2nd on his floor routine at regionals and was selected to the New England All American Team.

By the way, what is the overall height again of your tire/wheel? I can't get over how good those "balt" wheels look on your wagon!
