Judge's Cup Gymnastics Meet - Covington, KY

Grace and I traveled to Covington, Kentucky with her friend Kara and her mom. We decided to make this gymnastics meet a sort of "girl's weekend". We stayed in an older hotel, and were thankful we made our reservations when we did, as there was a NFL playoff game the night we arrived between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Pittsburgh Steelers. So it was a crazy place. We spent 2 nights, lots of time in the workout room, and lots of money. And had a great time! We ended up on the wrong trolley the first night and were slightly afraid that we were going to be killed, as we sat in a dark parking lot with the driver "calling" to see if he could get permission to take us to our hotel. Thankfully, he did. The girls' team ended up taking 1st place in the meet. Grace struggled through her first 2 events - events that she is normally great at - and then really pulled it together for the last 2! She ended up in 15th place overall, with a 4th place on bars and a 9th place on vault. Really proud of this girl!
