She received her metal in figure skating, we are all so proud of her, now she is in the running to be picked to go to the nationals. We'll have to wait to see if they pick her.

She had a college student following her from the first day up to when she won the Gold at the state games. She was in the local newspaper after the event.

We got a call from Todd the reporter with her to let us know her story will be on the internet this Thrusday( May 1st) at www. Frost Bite Sports.com, so if you'd like to see the article it will be on there along with some pics.

That's so exciting. And figure skating. My favorite. I'm a real Michelle Kwan fanatic. I miss her. Congatulations to your sister on winning the medal and best wishes for her continued success.
