This morning Elliott learned and perfected her {pencil jump} at her first cheer clinic hosted by Saugus High Cheer.
$30 well spent…they each received a t-shirt, their picture with a cheerleader, instructions on jumps, chants and a dance routine, bagels & cream cheese, orange wedges and pizza for lunch! It was so cute…once we checked in, there was a cheerleader that greeted her and escorted her into the gym to have her picture taken and then showed her to her group for some stretching and jumping jacks to warm up.
I only stayed for a hour and then ducked out and ran some errands. Jay & Holdy met me back there at 11:30 for the performance. All the girls showed off their jumps, cheers, claps and shouts.
Here is Holden cheering on his sissy:
Elliott and one of the darling girls waiting to get pizza…
It really was cute…
Below is the infamous pencil jump…
There were lots of claps…
She loved it.
She really looks up to the older girls and was borderline {teacher’s pet}…
Now she wants to do dance, cheer AND add soccer in the Fall. I told her that it might be packing too much in…
She quickly came back with, “But Mommy, it’s good exercise!”
Can’t argue with that?
Looks like we may be doing pencil jumps, shuffle steps and dribbling real soon!
