We ended up in Baton Rouge this year for DMI. It was the only venue that worked with our schedule and I love that these girls are willing to try something new and new competition!! At the time it didn’t sound that far but the closer the date came the more I dreaded the drive! Jim came to the rescue and went with us though. We made it a fam thing and drug Averi along too ANDDD Rozi! We have never taken her to anything like this before and she was SO GOOD!! ANYWAY….the drive wasn’t tooooo bad (but it was still really long!). The kids made it worth it though bc they danced beautifully!! Sydni got a 1st place score on her solo…only 6/10ths of a point from the next tier! She did well in auditions too making it to the final round! Her groups and duo all scored 1st and her pointe trio got a 2nd place score. “Undertow” (one of the groups) and “Make Believe” (her duo) got selected as a judge’s pick at the wrap up ceremony which was really exciting! This was Sydni’s last convention of the year (couple more comp onlys left in May) and I was sad to see it end. But next year is going to be even BETTER!
Enjoy the pics!
