My Varsity Girl!


Melissa has been working so hard the last few months to get her backhand spring down for cheer tryouts the end of May and she did it!! Only thing was the cheer coach decided to not let anyone know whether they made JV or Varsity until cheer camp in July...then, we realized the cheer coach made cheer camp for the same week that EFY was, that is "Especially For Youth" and is very hard to get into, especially the Provo, Utah one at BYU....so no question there, she WAS going to EFY. We then had to break the news to the coach that she wasn't going to cheer camp and just hope that she wouldn't punish Melissa , which she didn't because the day she went to EFY, she found out that she made the Flagstaff High Varsity cheer squad! We are SO proud of her and so thankful that she learned that when you do the right thing you will be blessed!!
YOU GO GIRL!!!
