6/365 - Sierra

Day 6 was spent with my mom and kiddo's in Park City. We headed up at 2 to watch my niece Sierra's last camp day / parents performance. As always she was amazing.

Sierra is so much like me, it is kind of scary. We look a lot alike. In fact, many people ask if I am her mom (I always hope for older sister though :) ). We have the same looks, brain, talents and in many ways the same chemical make up. We both get crazy migraines on at least a monthly basis. We both are "heat intolerant" as one doctor called it. We get very dehydrated easily and have a hard time being out in the sun.

Her camp was Tuesday - Thursday. She worked so hard on Tuesday and Wednesday that she was dehydrated and throwing up all day Thursday. I was the exact same way when it came to dance camps. She is a champ though, she danced each dance perfectly having to lay down and be "fanned" between routines.

Earlier in the day she had been chosen as one of the top 30 in the entire camp of over 200 girls. From there each girl performed a short solo to show their "stuff". She did 9 pirouettes, that is crazy! Sierra was chosen at the award ceremony as the "best of the best" top 6 dancers for the entire week at the camp. She is awesome!
