Nationals Trip

We received the list and dates of Alison’s cheer competitions for the year last week, and their qualifier for Nationals is on Dec. 2nd.  Last year we waited until they actually received their bid in order to plan our trip to Orlando to watch.  This year we are planning ahead.  Since they (The Varsity Squad) has only missed Nationals once in the last ten years, and that was due to a coach’s decision not because they didn’t qualify, Kris and I have taken care of reserving a place already (many thanks to my uncle Ray!).  I thought that if the unthinkable happens and they don’t qualify, it won’t be a big deal to cancel the hotel, but at least we’ll be able to have a place to stay that is only a 5 minute drive from where the girls will be.  Last year it took us a half an hour to get to their resort from where we were staying, so it was a lot of driving back and forth for things like cases of water, snacks, etc.  Now we just need to make it.
