What’s next? Cup of Colorado

Ok we are back from Colorado Championships and I would like to thank everyone at MHFSA, Carol Zeles, Clara Artymovich, Cheryl Brubaker, Connie Schamaun, the amazing people that volunteered in hospitality and the staff at Apex.

As I look back over the last 8 years and think of how large the competition use to be I think of all the amazing people and friends we have met and made at that competition.

It was the first place I met Kitty Carruthers Conrad and B.L. Wylie, the first place I saw and met Alissa Cziny and Rachael Flatt, this year I had the pleasure of watching up close and meeting Caydee Denney & John Coughlin what an amazing skate they had in both their Senior Short program and Senior Free Skate program.

I went out to watch some of the tots on Saturday and had a complete de je vue of watching Emma compete at “Champs” when she was younger.  As I was watching the great skating provided by the little ones I looked over at the Judges stand and saw…… you know what I am about to say.  Yes there she was looking all official and mature my little girl Judging! Amazing, to think of the wonderful people she has had the opportunity to meet, skate with, volunteer with and learn from. 

I hope that everyone takes a moment to just stop and enjoy your life, it really is amazing!

What’s next? 

Cup of Colorado, August 24-26, 2012 at South Suburban Ice Arena.  If you would like us to have your order ready for you when you arrive please let us know.  We look forward to seeing everyone there!

Where did summer go?

So here we are I can not believe that the kids are going back to school!  For some of you they are back in school and for some of you they start in the next week or so.  As I was thinking “where did the summer go” I thought it would be fun to include a picture of one of our summer outings.  The girls and I went to California to visit friends and we did a girl’s day to San Francisco.  Where did you go?  Share with us where you went, the beach, camping or maybe a foreign country? 

Whatever you did we hope you had a great summer and now feeling the excitement of school starting and the slightly overwhelmed feeling of how busy we will be with school starting I am including a little humor.  Our wonderful webmaster found some great “Mother” quotes and I want to share a couple of the top ones for me, especially when you have children that skate or have extra curricular activities.

"Poverty is hereditary - you get it from your children." - Phyllis Diller

“A suburban mother's role is to deliver children obstetrically once, and by car for ever after” – Peter De Vries

“I want my children to have all the things I couldn't afford. Then I want to move in with them.” - Phyllis Diller

I am behind in my blog and want to make sure I mention a few things.  We had a wonderful time at Colorado Championships and want to thank everyone involved.  Mile High Figure Skating Association for inviting us and to Cheryl Brubaker for keeping us well informed.  Also to all the volunteers and especially to Kim Berggren and her team for all their hard work in hospitality and keeping everyone well fed.  It is very much appreciated.  We hope everyone had a good time at Colorado Championships.

What’s up next for Skater’s Choice? 

We are happy to announce that we have been invited to Cup of Colorado, August 27-28 at South Suburban Ice Arena.

We are also excited to have been invited back to the Colorado Springs Invitational, September 14-18 at Sertich Ice Arena.
