CALIFORNIA

Have you ever rose on a bus for hours on end during the night? Well this is how our trip to California started and ended. I thought that the trip was a great sucess.


We started out by driving all night to California......then

First stop was Cal State Long Beach, for clinics and a little down time

The next day was Disneyland!!!! We loved this place. We had clinics this day. The clinics were wonderful and they created MAGIC, just like Disney is known for.

A Group of us in our "Bug" Glasses

We all performed in a parade through California Adventure the second day. Afterwards, we all went on a ride together. The HOLLYWOOD TOWER OF TERROR!!! It was a blast. One of my favorite rides for sure.

The next day was a tour of the Hollywood walk of stars. This one was my favorite star.
OOOH LALA

Then we saw the Hollywood bowl, where famous people have performed.

Then that night, we ate at Midevil Times. It was a blast! I loved everthing about it.

The best part was that some of us were on different teams, so we had a little rivalary going on. Go GREEN!!!

Tour was a blast! Thanks for all those that came to shapperone and all those that participated!

Third Competition.......Second Place!!!!

Well, I am glad the trend did not go on!!! We were a little worried. The judges comments on the tapes were not exactly good, and we felt like they did not like us that well. The exciting part about it all was that we were only 4 points behind AF this time instead of 9! So we are closing the gap!! I am very proud of the girls and their hard work this week. It is now time for a vacation! We are heading to Disneyland on Tuesday for some fun in the sun and a march in a parade with our marching band. California here we come!

Second Competition......Second Place!!!

I hope we are not setting a trend on the number of competitions means what place you get!!!
We performed great, even a little better than last competition, but a new group, American Fork Jr., decided to perform in our division. Last year, they were in the upper division and won 1st & second in that, so we were all a little confused of why they were put in our division. Well, they results came in and they won first, suprise, suprise! So the second place went to us, which in my eyes is first, cause AF shouldn't even be in our division. I hope they get moved up to the division they belong in, but unfortunately, it is not my decision. Look at this picture, we are AWESOME!!

The girl's were a little disappointed, and I feel bad about that because they did awesome. We got 2nd place out of NINE schools!!! That itself is amazing!!

First Competition......First Place!!!!!

We headed off for Orem High last Saturday. We have been working really hard for this day to come. We were doing a lot of last minute things like alterations on costumes & painting the dang floor!!! It all came together though and I want to thank everyone who helped us get here!

This is the absolutly, adorable winter guard right before we left to go warm up for the show.

Here is our first part of the show.

These blue flags are amazing. When we bring these flags out for the first time, they are BAM, AWESOME!

This is almost the end of the show, look how together we are!!

Lined up, waiting for the results of the night

And taking home a First Place in our division of 7!!! I am so proud of these girls and all the hard work and dedication!! They so deserved this and definately showed it during their performance!

I love ya all, lets get it again!!

The Final Floor

Our floor is FINALLY finished. it took a lot longer than we thought and a lot more headache too! Thanks to Toni and Jamie for helping Kristy with this section of the floor.

And thanks to Vicki, Brittany, & Kristy for finishing the floor and backdrops. It actually looks like we are in Shrek or a Castle of somekind at first, but it is growing on me & I like it!

Working on the Floor

Saturday, after evaluation show (which went well), we decided to paint our floor. We had a lt of parents show up to help & I really appreciated it. It got painted fast and looks great. We are still in the process of getting it all ready, but it will be there by our first competition on the 31st.

We saw alot of bums!

We even got a little on our selfs!

Stay tooned for the final project!
