Vegas Baby!!! A note to my girls :)

This is the weekend that we have been waiting for!! I can't believe that it has come here so fast!! You girls have taken all of us coaches on an emotional roller coaster. You guys make us yell, cry, laugh so hard my stomach hurts, and make us want to rip our hair out....but, more than anything you make us proud. I look at you girls and honestly I can't help but smile. Cheer has been important to me for so long and watching you girls work so hard and make this season (comp and regular) so amazing just continues to remind me why I do this.

Although we don't perform until Monday I have some things to tell you all before then:

• No matter what happens, know that we are proud of you
• LOCK OUT!!!
• Have sharp motions
• You have 2 mins and 30 secs to show those judges how hard you have been working all season. In that time you have to show them how bad you want this. How much blood, sweat, and tears you have put into this. Make every bruise, bloody nose, and achy muscle worth it. Show them that we are NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!!!
• Smile like you have never smiled before :)))
• Work your hardest to save every single stunt...don't go down without all of the fight that you have in you
• And most importantly....Leave your heart on the floor. Walk (or rally) off the floor knowing that there was nothing else that you could have put into that dance. Know that you put your all out there and gave it all you had!

You girls continue to impress me every time that you perform (some more than others). I am so proud to be your coach and I brag about you guys to everyone. Thank you for this season and let's go to Vegas and show those teams how Oakdale rolls :)

I love all of you girls more than you know and I can't wait to see where this crazy weekend will take us!!
