Today was a pretty good day. Although my knee is swollen from a fall on tuesday today i managed to land 7 double axels. It was very exciting to be getting them back better than ever. I also went to the doctor to get my knee x-rayed incase it was broken but it turns out it is only damanged tissue so nothing to worry about! I was really worried but now i'm ok.

Today I just got back from
Phoenix
Arizona
. It was so much fun; I got to see my family and had a blast meeting new people. One of the coolest parts was meeting Ola who I met through her website. She placed 3rd overall in Intermediate and she came back from getting 10th in short. When I skated I had 2 coaches down there Maria Causey and Bridget Dunn they were so nice and I can't thank them enough. I also saw some people who I have seen at a couple of
Colorado
competitions. Overall I was very happy to get 2nd overall and in Freeskate it was a great experience and I learned a lot. Thanks to all who wished me luck and helped me get there with your sponsorships!!
(April 2nd-6th)
This week was really amazing! After my competition I had a meeting with my coach we discussed my goals and how I am going to achieve them. I have a schedule of what I am supposed to do and I am following it as best I can. My mom and my coach are very proud at me this week because I am improving a lot. On Thursday I skated clean all day and didn't fall once (well once but that’s all only once). I hope next week goes as good as this week!!! P.S. I also worked on my triple sal and toe they were really close since I haven't been able to work on them in a while.

Today at skating was pretty good. I think I might have a breathing problem though. I can't breathe when I do my program and it’s not because of nerves or being afraid. I am getting tested for breathing problems tomorrow so I can get something to help with it before I compete on Friday. My double flip and double Lutz were nice and high today. My spins were also fast and controlled. I also have to skate in the morning tomorrow so that I can' get tested in the afternoon.

Hey everyone today at skating wasn't so good I was getting really nervous for my competition this week. I tried out my new Short program dress on the ice that my mom made. I also think I might be getting sick but I won't let that happen. My spins were ok but could be better. My coach and I had a talk about my nerves and how to control them I think they are gone now!!!

Sorry everyone that I haven't written in a while I have been very busy with my new programs! I also got new skates so I get to start skating in them on Tuesday. This week I had ups and downs. I got my doubles to the point of being really nice. I also landed 2 more "cheated" but landed triple sals. I am really happy with this because it gives me the feel of landing now all I have to do is get that little bit more rotation. My double axel had some downs this week and weren't doing to well, until yesterday I am getting them back to almost consistently rotating 2 1/2 times! Also I will have some new pictures up soon and hopefully some new sponsor links! Thanks!
