Circle of Stars Cheerleading Competition
Convention Center, Indianapolis
Feb. 24, 2008
 

Dressed up in the gear one last time.

Sparkly hair, sparkly smile, ready to go.

The girls are in the hall warming up and stretching before they go on.

I just thought you might like to see the lovely women's bathroom at the Convention Center in Indy.  ;)

More crowd getting ready shots-Kaylee's blocked.

Kaylee (and others) getting wristbands for the event.

Kaylee (center) and girls lined up and holding hands.  Oh the focus...

The people to the right are the judges, and the mat is where the girls perform.  There were over 50 cheer teams from all over the country (including Hawaii) here to compete.

Our girls in the opening move.

The first set of "lifts" in the routine.

The girls did a great job-and Kaylee had this look of concentration on her face the whole time.  I'll have to tell her to concentrate AND smile.  :)

There are bleachers/risers on 3 out of 4 sides of the girls. More people there than you would expect.

Kaylee's group getting ready for their part of the routine.  (She's the last girl standing on the right).

I took this mostly so you could see some of the bleachers.  Kaylee is to the left of the mat and you can't see her right now.

Blurry, but the Kokomo Hotshots exit the floor in a run.

Kaylee got a t-shirt out of it today, and I think will get a medal tomorrow.

Stylin', hey HEY!  ;)

This is window shopping/gazing and a little bit of pouting because even her argument of "See this orange sign?  It says 50% off!" didn't convince me to buy her more junk.  ;)

These are the glass elevators in our hotel.  Steve loves them.

Steve and Kaylee going into our suite.

*Hi!*

Kaylee's hanging off some stairs inside the hotel...

I don't know why I'm putting this in, but here you go-the inside of the hotel.  ;)

Kaylee engaged in her favorite activity of the weekend--escalator riding.

One last trip up/down before we go home...

Kaylee getting her award certificate for completing Hot Shots and competing in the Circle of Stars Competition

Coach Brittney puts her medal around her neck.

The Hot Shots (Kaylee is far right in the back row)

The kids all say "We're Number One!"

"Hot Shots" with their coaches.  :)
