Mikaela's Hair Studio

One Sunday Mikalea got Sadie to let her do her hair. (it wasn't easy)
mikaela let her do it for free because it was so hard to get her to let mikaela do it!

for her hair sadie wanted to do a spider weg like the day before
mikaela desided to try it all the way aroud he head for a change


it took 1hour too get it done including the breaks Sadie took.
while we were doing it I didn't think it would turn out so good.

it was hard work getting sadie to hold still but she finaly settled down.
so i could do her hair .

In the end as you can see it turned out pretty good
(i charge $3.00 per person)

"USA" May Festival

Mikaela & Spencer could hardly wait until May Day. It is one of the funnest days of the whole school year. Each class did a dance to celebrate the USA and honor the troops that had been serving from our area. It was a real neat program!

Mikaela was all smiles while she was doing her dance. She loves to perform! Her clogging skills came in handy for this performance!

Spencer could hardly wait for us to see his class dance. He wouldn't tell us what they were doing because he wanted it to be a suprise. He did a great job being one of the group leaders.

It's fun to have lots of cousins to take pictures of and with.

Sadie Graduates!!!!

Sadie graduated from "The Crayon Academy"! She was so excited to get a graduation cap and wear her favorite dress!

This is just some of the kids in her class. It was mostly a class full of girls. Only a couple of boys.

As soon as we got home from graduation, Sadie wanted her picture taken.

What a great model!

"Not yet out of the jungle"

Jessica graduated from Ephraim Middle School this last week. Their theme was "Not yet out of the Jungle". (They have no idea). Jessica received several awards from different classes and academic awards also. She got a 4.0 every single quarter this year. Way to go Jess!

Jessica and her dad danced one dance. I'm sure it was the most embarrasing thing that has ever happened to Jessica!!!!

Some of her friends.

These girls are happy to be going to high school. They can't wait to be freshmen! It seems like just yesterday that it was me who was excited to be going to high school. How time flies!!!!

1st tournament blue's

Mikaela's first accelerated tournament ever. She was very NERVOUS!!!!

Mikaela played 3rd base and left field.

Her team went 0-4. Not a great showing, but they should end up being pretty good.

Chelsea is helping out with the team. When she coached 3rd base, they made her wear a helmet because she isn't 18. Everyone got a good laugh out of that.

The weather in St. George was really nice and the kids had a great time playing in the pool and running around getting dirty. We love going to St. George in the spring time when the weather is just right!

Chelsea's sweet 16!!!

Chelsea's friends came and decorated her room(after they "cleaned" it for her). She was completely suprised!!

Her cake was a big Hannah Montana chocolate chip cookie cake. Her favorite yet!!! Can't beat that!

Chelsea got an ipod shuffle to take with her wherever she goes.

This is Chelsea admiring her cake. She just can't take her eyes off of the Hanah Montana cake!

It seems like just yesterday that Chelsea was born and here we are celebrating her 16th birthday. Time goes by fast when you are having fun! Drivers watch out! She has her driving permit and is waiting for driving time with the driver's ed teacher so she can get her real license. She has almost mastered driving the Honda and being able to change gears. The stopping and starting has improved a whole bunch from when she first started. Now she only kills the engine once in a while.
