pageant days











So Kaylee was in a Hawaiian Tropics pageant this past weekend and we have discovered that pageant life is not for us.... lol She won third place in Western wear and she also won Miss congeniality which we were so excited about... :) While we were there a lady from a kids magazine told us that Kaylee has a lot of talent and that she is really interested in working with her , so I guess we will have to wait and see what comes of that but in the meantime here are some pics from the pageant.....
our newest niece Kamryn

















Here are the pictures of our latest happenings... lol

Easter

We had a fun Easter. My mom had come down to celebrate my 30th birthday with me and so my dad came up Saturday to pick her up so we celebrated Easter then. We took the kids to an activity where they had what seemed to be a billion moonwalks and a rock wall and face painting and easter egg hunt and tons of candy. The kids had a blast and it was of course fun for us to see their fsces light up as they ran to another fun activity. So, we got home and ate easter food and just enjoyed being with eachother. It was really nice.
Well, I would post some pictures but for some reason it won't let me. What is the deal? I can't figure it out. I guess I will save that for another day.

what else?

Courtney has been taking the missionary discussions and it is going really well. We are excited for her. She tried her baptism dress on that we had bought about 6 months ago and it fit perfect and looked so beautiful on her. Her taking the discussions of course has helped our family out quite a bit too. It is funny to me that I have been raised in the church and heard all the stories so many times but it seems I learn new things all the time. lol Funny how that works huh? At church on Sunday I got a kick out of Logan because as we were driving home I had asked him if he learned anything in church, after him thinking for a sec he says " um, no not really , they only taught me how to color. " So George of course starts asking him if he learned about the meaning of Easter and if he learned anything new about Jesus and Logan says "well, there was something about Jesus and a resignation." I about busted a gut laughing about that one. Man, I love kids! hahaha

I know, I am a slacker.... don't remind me

Yes, I know it has been forever since I posted anything..... I will not even attempt to catch you up on what has been happening cuz I can't remember it all but I will try to remember the last 2 weeks... deal?
We went last weekend to Baton Rouge for a birthday/family reunion for George's family. It was the first time in history that all of the siblings were together in one spot. Pretty amazing huh? It was George Sr.'s 57th birthday and it was a suprise to him. It turned out really nice and everyone had a great time. George is the oldest of his siblings and the youngest will be 2 in October... Crazy huh?
