ODM

Competition 2 of 3 weekends in a row was ODM in Columbus. Normally this would be a local competition but because of restrictions they had to move locations. Paige didn't perform until Saturday night so we drove up in the afternoon and checked into the hotel before heading over to the venue. It was block scheduling which meant only Paige's studio was in the building while they were dancing and she danced right up until the end of the block so we got back to the hotel around midnight! 
On Sunday we had to be back at 2:30 for Paige to do her other six dances and ended up getting home around 8. Awards were virtual that night and very long(!) so we didn't stay up for them but Paige tied for 8th place overall for her solo in a very tough category so we were all so excited for her! Her other dances did well but I don't have the rundown of the scores this time!

Day 1, Clockwise from top left-hip hop, ready for lyrical (Maya was in her acro costume), older dancers explaining their dance after Paige had some questions, Maeve giving Paige a pep talk about her solo later, ready for acro!

Day 2, clockwise from top left-a little bit of time to swim Sunday morning, the girls playing Slamwich, ready for jazz, warming up in the hotel room!
