Drill Team, Shane Sparks and more...

These past 4 days McKenna has been in Bellevue, Washington at a Drill Team camp with most of her team-mates for team building, fun choreography, time away from mom and dad, but mostly for the chance to meet SHANE SPARKS! He's an amazing choreographer from "So You Think You Can Dance", "Dance Crew", and many more things. He was part of this camp for a short time for a Hip Hop Master Class, pep talk and autographs...and yes she did get the t-shirt with his autograph plus a picture (thank you Lori). She had a great time, learned things, hurt some things..but all in all loved it! We've missed her a LOT this summer with all her stuff that keeps her away, but I guess this is the whole point of them growing up...right?! The parents were invited the last day to come watch a showcase of their efforts and I have to say (no bias, really) our girls are GOOD! Several people came up to my friend Vickie and I (obviously noticing our beautifully rhinestoned "Molahiettes" sweatshirts...we know you are all jealous!) and commented on how well our girls have done. If that isn't justification for a 2 1/2 hour drive there and 2 1/2 hours back for the couple of minutes your child is on stage, I just don't know what would be! But I am a proud mama.

P.S. Thank you Peggy and Lori for letting me steal some of your pics!
