I started with you when I was a tiny/mini cheerleader. I was mesmerized by watching the big kids. I wanted to be like them and win a medal.
When we started practicing I was a little taken aback. I did not know it at the time, but our team was a mess. We forged on over the course of many months. Through dedication, tons of coaching, fighting through immeasurable amounts of frustration we began to come together. You believed in me and told me I could get that forward roll. Once I perfected that, you said I could get my cartwheel, I did. Then I moved on to my back walk over. I did it, but it was never perfect, You always coached me every inch of the way. Celebrating little victories, but making sure my arms were straight and that I was always on count. Why are you so mean? Continue Reading

There’s a story I would like to share with 2 weeks left of preparation before routines begin in Daytona. January 1st the Blinn Cheer program was devastated by the news that one of our sophomores was in a fatal car accident. Jarred was an amazing cheerleader, and an even better person and leader. He was a member of NCA Staff for the past couple of years and on our 2017 NCA Championship team. Every person Jarred came in contact with could remember his loving personality and his genuine smile. Jarred was passionate about cheerleading and about his families with Blinn and NCA.
This season, at :45 seconds into the routine, we bow our heads for a moment of silence that extends to :46. Maybe it’s coincidence but this routine will be performed on 4/5 and 4/6 this year in Daytona. I try and instill the “treasure the journey” mindset in my athletes every year because you never know when your “last” of anything will be.
We miss you everyday JarBear and can’t wait to showcase the tribute to JF5 Friday at Blinn and in 2 weeks in Daytona.
NEVER FORGET!!!

Finding a good romper isn’t always easy. It’s either too long, too short, or just makes me look like a big slop. Recently as I was going through ASOS on a binge shopping spree I came across this maroon romper and thought, “this could be it!” and it was!
As soon as I tried it on I knew it was the perfect romper and what’s been even better is it’s very transitional for all seasons. Maroon is great for winter as it’s a nice dark, simple color. However, this look is more capri style with short sleeves and quite airy making it phenomenal for summer. Continue Reading
