Sorry I haven't posted in a while but life has been a little hectic. Amanda has been fighting a wicked stomach flu for the past 3 days. It had her so weak yesterday that she could barely move - but she was brave and went forward with the Demo team competition. She is one of the highest ranking members on the team and does sword, nunchucks, bo staff, and a blindfolded board breaking routine that would leave the team a little bereft without her. She gave her all - I am so proud of her. Lesser kids would have thrown in the towel and given up.
Here is a link to the youtube video that we took on a phone - not a great resolution but it is enough to get an idea of the team. They all did such a great job - I am so proud of all of them.

They really pulled together and the 7th place finish is nothing to cry about - the competition was really tough and they tried their best.
Unfortunately, she seems to have passed the bug to G3, who is down and out now too. So I am the glue holding everyone together! Let's hope I don't succumb too. We are back at the competition today to support friends and train. Amanda's big day is tomorrow!
Thank goodness G4 and Alex seem fine. They are being good and supportive - I will update tomorrow.
