Ireland 2008

---

Just a quick update. I'm on the computer that belongs to the B&B, so I can't upload any pictures.

It was quite an exciting few days.

Taelyr placed 3rd (Bronze Medal) in her Solo event!!! I thought Sacha was going to pass out.

She also received a Silver Medal in the 3 Baton event. Rumor has it that she placed 4th in the 2 Baton event.

The Group (Music In Me) won the Gold Medal!!! ALl the Mom's cried. It has been 15 months of hard work by the girls, and hundreds of hours of volunteer and fundraising by the parents....well worth it after that performance, it was incredible. I'm getting emotional even now when remembering it. We did purchase videos of the opening ceremonies, solo event, medal ceremonies, and the group performance in case anyone wants to re-live it with us when we get back.

Taelyr was the only multiple medal winner from Canada in the International Cup as she is coming home with 3. She was one of only three Canadian girls to win an individual medal.

The team has been very supportive and are very happy with the success. Wow.

Today we are going south to Mitchelstown, Cahir, and Cashel. The sun is shining for the first time ;) I will have to post the rest of the picutres at a later date. Maybe our hotel in Dublin will have internet access.

UPDATE: The computer in Dublin does have internet access....here are some more photos.

See you soon.
