Mercedes Homecoming Dance

My niece Mercedes and her boyfriend Terry went to Norwin's Homecoming Dance on Saturday 9-26-2009. My sister unfortunately had to work so Mercedes asked me to take her to get her hair, makeup and nails done. It was exciting!!
With all the rain on Saturday by the time we got her hair done and got her dressed mostly all the curls in her hair came out. Here she is with her mom. She looked beautiful!

Fall Festival Parade

The girls were in the Scottdale Fall Festival Parade for softball. Madisyn is the first one on the right with the purple shirt on.

Alexis decided to look away just as I took the picture!!! Thanks LooLoo

MADISYN'S 6TH BIRTHDAY

HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY MADISYN!!!!!!!! I can't believe that my baby girl just turned 6. I had to work yesterday and when I got home this is what I saw. LOL This crown was given to Madisyn by her Kindergarten teacher Mrs. Zimmerman. Her teacher wrote Madisyn is 6 today on the crown. Since it was her Birthday she had to walk around school all day with this crown on and she was the head honcho. She thought that it was great that she got to be the line leader, pass out papers, turn off the lights when they left the room, pass out the treats she took in for her classmates, and she thought it was so cool that her classmates and teacher sang Happy Birthday to her.

E.T.

Look we spotted E.T. in our backyard. Well not really but that's what Dayne said. We were sitting out by the fire pit the other night and the girls put this pink hooded sweatshirt on DJ. I didn't think nothing of it and as he walked away Dayne laughed hysterically and yelled look it's E.T. I instantly thought of my sister in law Lisa. We thought she would get a kick out of this. Everytime we get with Lisa we laugh about movies to the point we can't stop and our stomachs hurt. It's so funny. It really does look like E.T. What do you think?

1ST DAY OF SCHOOL 8-31-09

Well today was the first day of school for my little girls! Look how much they love each other.

Madisyn is a drama queen and wants to pick out her on clothes so thank goodness we did that the night before. It must have taken Alexis about 5 minutes to pick out her outfit and Maddy took about an hour. No joking

I cried like a baby when my girls got on the bus. My little angels are growing up to fast.

VIRGINIA BEACH

Here we are on vacation at Virginia beach!
DJ didn't like the water but he did like all the sand

This is James, Sherry and Tyler I think this picture is really nice

The kids in the hall waiting for the elevator

James and Sherry got a kick out of this picture. Alexis said she could get the girls ice cream and this is what it looked like when they got back to the table LOL. James said Alexis shouldn't work at a dairy queen any time soon!!

This is a picture of Alexis out in the ocean if you look right behind her you will see a dolphin fin. I didn't notice that dolphin in the picture until I loaded the pictures onto my computer. How cool is that? She was very excited when I showed her. We saw dolphins almost everyday we were there.

This is a night we flew kites on the beach. DJ just played in the sand can you tell?

Me and my pal Sherry

Happy 10 Year Anniversary James and Sherry!!!

This was taken at the aquarium. Oh no my girls were eaten by a shark!

Alexis was excited to be able to touch a stingray

Look how cute!!
