And the Winner Is....

ICE PRINCESS! She did a fabulous job and won a first place medal at her competition yesterday! She is on cloud nine and is so very proud of herself! She worked very hard and managed to pull it off and place 1st in her group. WTG, Ice Princess! This is not something we expect will happen all of the time, but boy did it feel great when the results came in and we saw she came in first! Not only did she come in first, but all of the judges unanimously agreed! Anyone who understands figure skating will understand what I mean by that. LOL! I don't have any video to share just yet, but I do have a lot of pictures to share! As soon as I have video, I will share it. :-)

Her 1st spin.

Ending her spin.

Her lunge.

Her spiral.

Bunny hops.

One foot glide while smiling at the judges. Yup...one must charm those judges!! LOL!

Another spiral. This one isn't as pretty as the first one, but it is still notably good for her level! Her coach has said with practice and stretching, her spiral will continue to get higher!


Photobucket

Another lunge. This was her last minute lunge. She deviated from her program since she was ending a little early and would have ended before her music ended. She threw this lunge in which helped her to end on time! :-)

Photobucket

A podium picture. Unfortunarely, there was a lot of confusion when the awards were given out. Because of that confusion, the other girls in her group were not available for podium pictures. The gal taking the podium pictures didn't do that great of a job anyway, so who knows how the group pics would have turned out! LOL

Ice Princess and Drama Ice Queen(IP's best bud...lol). Both girls came in first place in their events! This obviously was after they were both finished skating. :-)

Anyway, Ice Princess is a happy girl and we are so proud of her! Thanks for looking!
