Ella and I drove to Tacoma this evening for her to compete at Charity Choice, her third meet of the season. This is a large meet held in the Tacoma Convention Center that is known for the umbrellas that hang from the ceiling and the free leotard that every gymnast is given. Since I chose to video all four of Ella's events instead of taking pictures, I only took a few at the very end during the medal ceremony. Ella received a 9.25 on bars, an 8.675 on beam, an 8.825 on floor, and an 8.95 on the vault, giving her an overall score of 35.7. Although she was one gymnast away from winning a medal (as she came in 10th place for her age group and the top nine girls received medals), I was still really proud of her and what a great job she did. Ella keeps on telling me how much more difficult Level 4 is from Level 3 in every event, so i am just so amazed at what a great job she has done in learning all four routines and mastering the difficult skills in each of these routines. Way to go, Ella!
