A few weeks ago we headed to Tuscaloosa for Mo's gymnastic meet. We love this trip and the kids had a great time. Turner loves the hotel because of the "cafe" (free breakfast), and everyone was excited about the pool. Nonna, Mimi, and Boo Boo all joined us for this trip.
We had dinner at the Cypress Inn, which overlooks the lake and is delicious. After dinner we let the kids swim. Mo's whole group was at the same hotel and they were able to swim together. They were sweet Turner and Harper loved moving around the steps. After swimming, it was time to hit the bed. Turner headed to Nonna's room, Mo went with Mimi and Boo Boo, and we kept Harper.
Nonna got the short end of that stick. Turner woke her up at midnight asking if it was time to get breakfast yet. Ha! We all had breakfast, got ready for the meet and grabbed a quick bite at Mo's for lunch. Mo's meet started at 1:15, and we had to be there at 12:45. Mo was nervous and we just told her over and over to fight to stay on the beam, which ended up being her first event.
Our girl did great! She stayed on that beam and placed 3rd. She scored a 9.550 on vault (1st), a 9.525 on floor(2nd), and got 4th on bars with an 8.9 (I think). She place 2nd overall and she was all smiles. Xcel is a new experience for us, but she is having fun, learning new skills, and still bringing home some medals. It was a good day!
It was a late night getting home, but we love these little family trips. We love having our village join us as well:)
