Emily's First Skating Competition

This girl put on her first pair of ice skates 14 years ago...


...and HATED EVERY SECOND OF IT...


Who knew, we'd be here today, at her very first skating competition!?!? She has been skating now for a few years, and LOVES her job as an assistant coach at several ice rinks. She skates multiple times a week, and can even be found at the rink at 6am some days to squeeze in a practice! She is growing everyday into a confident, poised and BEAUTIFUL skater, and we could NOT be more proud of her!






In case you're wondering... this is what a nervous mom at a competition looks like...


Despite it being her first attempt, and deciding to sign up with only 1 month to practice, she placed FIRST in her group of skaters! Way to go, girl!



Her coach was SO proud!!!!




First thing off the ice, she called her anxiously awaiting fans to tell them the awesome news. I don't think our family has EVER all joined a Facetime call so fast!


Way to go Emily! We can't wait to see your next performance now!!!!!


Check out her very first skating competition performance here!
