Miss Mississippi pageant photos

I was a host for the Miss Mississippi pageant this year and loved it. These were my girls, Melissa King in the green and Kristen Benigno. They were both beautiful, talented girls.
Jay and I on the final night of the pageant.
Me and Miss Vicksburg, Telia Brewer, who I fell in love with. She is soooo adorable!

Can you spot the baby?

Luci found a nice little seat when I needed to put her down in the kitchen. She fit perfectly in the basket of clothes!
Can't you tell she was a big helper!
I was trying to catch her little smile-which she does all the time!! She is such a happy baby! ANd she has really turned into a good baby. The first few weeks were hard, and i wondered what in the world we had done, but now she is really a joy! She just goes with the flow!

And on to First Grade....

I know it is a little late, but these are the pictures form John William's class program. the school doesn't include the kindergarten in their awards ceremony, so the teachers had "special" awards for all the kids. These are his two teachers, Ms. Evans on his right and Ms. Oldenburg on his left.
His sweet little profile.
The classmates waiting on their awards

John William got the "Pencil Pusher" award, because he loved to sharpen his pencil in the electric sharpener. He also got the award for the Most lost jackets and lunchboxes-that is pretty self explanatory.
