Wow and it just keeps getting better from work

So not only have they taken my facebook away, but now it has been brought to my attention that I am on the web just way to much. Now I know that ALOT of place have no internet policy. But in the mornings we are so slow, so it's okay to read the paper, or read a book, but not okay for me to be online. I spend a good part of my day getting yelled at by not so happy customers, the least that I can do is blog, or post on facebook, or be on Ning when we are not busy. I take more calls and do more training then anyone in here.
Sorry for my rant- but I had to get it out...lol

On a plus note today is Kate's 1st day of tryouts for school :) I am sure that she will be just fine! But still want to wish her lots and lots of luck- they have them today and tomorrow and then the official tryout on Monday!!

Oh and I will be posting again today- I have a wonderful girl doing a makeover on my blog and of course I will want to know what you think!!

I think I just need some good thoughts today :) :) Plus we are still waiting on some big Cheer Moms news!!!

School Tryouts Week!!

Well here we are back for another fun filled week, I can honestly say that coming to work this morning was not as enjoyable as it has been with the whole “facebook” ban. I blame on me missing alot of chance to work on Cheer Moms- but who am I kidding I am really just pissed that I can’t get on my farmville..lol
Anyways, back to the cheer talk. We are on a week break from all-stars, so of course that means that we have something cheer going on anyways because this is the week of school tryouts. It really took Kate up until the last minute to decide if she was going to do it this year, mainly because of one conflict that she had with all-stars last year. I told her it would be stupid for her to not cheer her 8th grade year, since she if she makes it will be one of the only one’s that has cheered both years. Now watch her not make it after me telling her that- she would be so mad!! But I think that she will. She try’s out on Wed and Thursday and then the final tryout is on Monday. So we should know Monday night- cause they start practicing on Tuesday. Can you say fun times
All in all I think that she’s excited about it, and I think she just wanted the chance to drive me a little bit crazy..lol
I have some all-star news at the gym that I would like to blog about, but I don’t think that Iam ready to do that just yet. I don’t think its something that I can talk about in a very nice way. But it is something that I do want to talk about, just not yet. So watch for that to be coming in the next day or so, maybe even hours.
How many of you have children that are getting ready to try or for school, or have already tried out and how did it go?
Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend!!!

New Things that I am doing with this Blog

Since we have so many things going on right now with Cheer Moms as a whole, and I do have Mom’s that want to blog, I think that I am going to have them blog on their own blog, and link up with this one.
After doing alot of thinking I was kinda thinking that I am going to be making this more my “personal” blog, my personal experience with cheerleading. How it effect’s my children, and my family and my thought on things. I thought it would be really neat if we had a few Mom’s that were will to do the same thing. That way we could all share what’s going on with us, our kids, our lives and how we feel about different topic’s.
I am still planning on doing review’s on things, and stuff like that I just thought it would be really neat if we had a couple of us doing the same thing, but somehow all linked together- because I know what everyone deals with is different!!
Let me know what you all think about this idea, I know that it’s seems like we are rolling out something new or changing something all the time- but keep in mind that this is all so new. Heck I have never run a website before- and I never thought that we were going to take off the way that we did- and I am so happy that we have
Also if you have a blog already and you would like me to add your link- please let me know!!

Review for CHEERography

Customer review for CHEERography LLC:
As co-owner of Gymnastics & Cheer World, along with program director of Cheer World, I am pleased in continuing to do business with CHEERography. This will be our 4th season using their choreography services for all of our teams. From their first year were it was just co-founders Pat Fogarty & Paul Cascioli, to now with their growing staff of experienced choreographers, they have always delivered affordable & innovative work. They create the routines with room for skill level to grow and the routine does NOT need major changes. We are also excited for their new program, Camp Rai$ing, were they will host a youth cheer clinic as a fundraiser for our gym! I’ve lived through the horror stories of choreographers not showing up, or not delivering a professional product. All of CHEERography’s staff works great with the kids & are always on time and on schedule. I would give my recommendation to ANY team! CHEERography has gone above and beyond my expectations!

Head 2 Toe Cheer!


So here’s my first review-
So as a Mom of a cheerleader, 2 cheerleaders in fact it seems like I am always looking for something. Shoes, hairbows, shorts, shirts, you name it. So when I find a company that I really like, I like to share that with everyone else!!
Last season we needed to find a pair of Nike Sidelines for my 5 year old, because even though she didn’t “need” them for her team, any white cheerleading shoe would work- she just had to “have” the sidelines because that’s what the older girls had. So I couldn’t find them anywhere, and when I contacted Chris she went to make sure that she had them in stock, emailed me back to tell me they had them and then I had them at my door 2 days later!! So I was impressed at that point.
Then our gym was looking for Bling shirts, and I thought that I would contact Head 2 Toe Cheer, because of the great service that I had gotten before- so of course I got wonderful service again and a wonderful product. It’s defintitly worth checking them out!!

Here a pic of our new Bling Shirts- I LOVE THEM!!!

I think that I am going to be moving back to here from wordpress. So I will be adding alot of posts from over there. Sorry for all the trouble.
