Savannah was jumping for joy (literally) because she didn't have mono or the flu, it was just some kind of virus. Thank you everyone for your kind words and prayers, they were greatly appreciated! I am so fortunate to have such loving friends and family members! Savannah had to drop out of 2 of the 4 dances at the first competition and also her Solo but was added back to all 4 dances for the 2ND competition. She will be performing her lyrical Solo in Hawaii.


The girls have done extremely well at the competitions so far (including 4Th place overall out of 43 teams at one competition)!

We re-decorated the drill team locker room for competition season. The theme is "Under the Sea" but I chose to decorate with a Hawaiian theme. I envisioned a window (with a view to the ocean) with a bench in front of it. I used a grass skirt for a "window valance". I packed her present in a green sand pail. I used pink terry cloth fabric on the bench pad and "valance". Here is Savannah's dressing area:

The cute felt flip flops are from Hobby Lobby. I use them as curtain tie backs (along with some raffia).

The "relax" sign is from Joanns. I painted it tan and then sprinkled some real sand on it. Then I added all of the embellishments.
