Some of Cassidy's Skating activities

Can't leave out twinkletoes now, can I?
Here she is in her Grease costume for her group programme
(or is it program?)
She's Frenchy lolol!



I've added their dress rehearsal run through HERE
(Sorry about the quality)

Her sit spin is definately improving....
she just has to complete it after the sit bit!
Her next goal is to get her Camel spin that she's been
attempting from time to time.
Once she starts that, will put a little clip on.

Another tournament and Ski day

The team entered another tournament on January 20th
in Westmeath (BRRRRR)

Click HERE to see them in action!
And another clip HERE
And one last one HERE

and they came out on top again!
Wooo hooooo!


Dylan and I went skiing Friday for his school away day
It was FREEZING!!!!
Here are a few clips to watch
The first one is the kids going up for their first run down
They are soooo excited as you'll see HERE
And I froze my fingers off while holding the camera
I wanted to catch Dylan and Blair skiing but they
took off before I was ready. Dylan was a
ski maniac and I couldn't catch up to him till I made it
to the bottom of the hill, the little buggar!
I did manage to get Blair on the way down.
You can see the clip HERE
And I did capture a few wee seconds of Dylan HERE

Dylan all geared up!
Blair and Dylan getting ready for a run down

Dylan's Home Hockey Tournament

On January 7th, the two Eganville Atom teams hosted a tournament
which was very successful!
The A final game was the best we could have hoped for
with an Eganville #1 VS Eganville #2 match up
(you can click to enlarge any of these pics)



The results were Eganville #2 taking the A Champs
with close score of 3-2
(Dylan is second from the left bottom row)

Cassidy's first freeskate competition

Cassidy was asked to be flag bearer for the opening ceremony

You can watch Cassidy's Freeskate HERE
She is skating to music from The Incredibles.
She has skated the program much better,
but considering the circumstances, I think she did fantastic!
She's my little Star!

Cassidy's Waltz Jump element HERE

Cassidy's Backward Crossovers HERE

The whole day was an experience for all of us. Heartbreaking for Cass, but is something she needed to face at some point. She placed 6 out of 7 in her Freeskate, and 4 out of 5 in her elements. (There was one judge that placed her 2nd so that is good!)
