We just got back from Diablo Gymnastics in San Ramon, CA for the Sock Hop Invitational 2010. This was our first time at this event. Lighting was average…LOL! The floor was out of the way and I didn’t feel like climbing stairs to take pictures, so I watched. The vault is usually out of the way, but in this gym, it was accessible….so I got some shots this time.
This is going to be our last meet for the year. We’re going on vacation in less than two weeks, so we’ll miss the rest of this year’s meets.
Hannah’s scores: Vault 8.350 (4T); Bars 8.525 (8); Beam 8.425 (6T); Floor 8.975 (1); AA 34.275 (4). She also got an award for ‘Good Sportsmanship’. Not sure who gave her the award, but it was nice!





First Place on the Floor Routine!

God bless you, Hannah! And your dad, too. I enjoyed the pictures of you and everything else. My heart is full of joy after looking at such beauty. God bless your mother, too. From Dolores in Waldport, Or.
