Katelyn's Boise Cheer Competition

Katelyn had a cheerleading competition yesterday in Boise. Katelyn cheers with Idaho Falls Elite Allstars and loves it. She used to be in a dance class and a tumbling class and decided to try something that was a good combination of them both--cheerleading. And she hasn't looked back since. She competes with other cheerleaders in Idaho and Utah so we travel a bit, but she genuinely enjoys it which makes it worth it! She's a flyer this year so she gets thrown up in the air which is really fun for her and is doing back hand springs all over the mat. So yesterday we made the almost 5 hour trip to Boise to watch her perform in the Idaho Center. Her team got 2nd place! Not bad! They did really well, and we were very proud. Next stop...Jazz game half time show! Big Time! This is Katelyn up on top. Katelyn and her friend Journee. Riley thought it was very loud!
Here are a couple video clips.


Here you can see Katelyn doing her back hand springs.
