Marissa tried out today, after late notice, for the 2009 Eagle's All Star Cheer Team, a competitive cheer squad here in Oki and made it! After quite a bit of coxing to sign-up for the Okinawa Youth Football League Cheer Team she surprisingly LOVED it and was more than excited to give this a try as well!
Congratulations little one! Don't let anybody ever tell you that you can not do something you set you mind to. Look at today, you worked hard and had a goal and now you are going to have many more great memories of our time here in Okinawa.
Go Eagles 2009!
