That's incredible, ice skating is so beautiful and such an elegant sport! The photos are great, thank you for sharing ^_^

That lucky coconut sure works!

Congratulations on your successes - you must put in a lot of hard work but I'm glad to see that it looks like there's plenty of fun in there too.

Love the photos, love the costumes...I especially love the music choices. I was a competitive skater from age 4 to 18, and it was my life. I quit when I went to college and I still miss it everyday. Skating has defined who I am and has taught me so many life lessons, that I hope to continue with it one day as a judge or coach. Congrats on your many achievements! You should keep us all posted on when you have competitions, I'd love to hear all about them!

Thanks!

The 1984 Olympic Games...The girl that won the Silver medal was from my hometown and when I saw her in a beautiful pale aqua dress spinning...I was transfixed! I begged my parents for lessons and that February I started. I have not stopped since

That's so awesome! I figure skated for years, but the competitive side of it burnt me out, and I haven't skated in a while. I miss it.
