Mission Field Day: Completed!

Grace, Amber, Andrea, Anna, and Alex...

Congratulations on your first show of the season! It was a great run, and each of you should be proud of yourselves and each other. (I know I am!) You all really came alive in front of that crowd!

Also, I want yall to take a minute and realize that you learned a great deal of your work over the past 2 days! TWO DAYS! That's fantastic. If you can keep up the same work ethic that you showed us on Thursday and Friday, like I know you can, you will go very far. And I for one can't wait to see you every step of the way.

Now, enjoy your long weekend (as if you weren't rested enough from the snow days! :P)! Experiment with some tosses, flag work, or dance, or sleep. Haha.

I love each and everyone of you, and you all make me so very proud!

Almost time

Hi Ladies!

Almost time for the 2011 season to officially kick off.  I was reminded today of what a great year last year was and wanted to kick off this season officially with a blast from last year.  I just watched this again and I thought how fitting that I post it for the season that is about to begin.  Everyone struggles from time to time.... on the floor.... off the floor... in school.... in friendships... in guard.... in life... but in the end what we think might literally kill us... often times are the things that we laugh at the most.... much later that is.  So enjoy the struggles of last years Dega Darlins for a minute and remember what a trip it was for them from field day to championships.  If you find your heart racing and that you are holding your breath.... you can stop.... they win. ....lol.  (When I watched it, I did that for some reason.... thought I would spare you the suspense.)

see you guys tomorrow at ELLIS!  (meet in the bandroom... or as I have recently named it... the winter guard storage room.)

1.13.2011 practice!

Hey girls!

I hope you all have been enjoying your snow days! (and piecing together and practicing your new show material! ha!)

On Thursday at your practice you need to come with your hair in a low ponytail. Pin back, hairspray, and gel down everything as necessary, no fly aways! (I might attack you with hairspray, and you might end up with a hair helmet, haha.) Oh and come with no eye makeup on (or just mascara is fine) we are going to do a test run of that too.
Also, we need you to all wear the same color. I'm going to assume that your band shirts would be good since you all have one, and probably red shorts. HOWEVER, if you all want to talk about it and make sure you have the exact same color of shirt let me know and you should be able to wear that.

And on a side note, come with great attitudes and ready to perform! Last week was really productive, I would love to keep up that pace.


I am super excited to see what this season brings you!
I love you girls!

SNOW!
