Fun at the Auditions

Makenna did such a great job at the tryouts and was so brave. As soon as she got up to sing, Kurt Bestor asked her if I was her mom and she said yes and then she told him what she was going to sing. She was great!! I am so proud of her. We got to spend hours in line together and then went to the food court to eat. Its been forever since we have had a mom/daughter night together. It really was a lot of fun. I feel like I did a good job too. These are a few pictures that we took. Sorry the quality isn't all that wonderful, but you can get the idea.

Sing Sing Sing

So I am going to Orem today to give the Utah's Best Singer contest a try. I figure it can't hurt and I have nothing to lose, so why not! Makenna is going to sing too. She is a fabulous little singer. A lot a talent wrapped up in a little body. Wish me luck and if you are in the neighborhood, come by and see me.

Cutest Kids in the World!

I wanted to show you all 3 of the cutest kids I know. The pictures didn't turn out all that well, a little blurry, but nonetheless here they are! I forgot to say that the guy in the back is my husband Joe and one is of Makenna concentrating super hard on the carving. Seth is with me at Maddie's school to watch the costume parade and the other is Maddie being the "Princess" she is. Halloween was great this year. We sure had fun.

This is a little funny thing that I thought I would post to show my enthusiasm for Halloween. Hope your day is happy!!

Buddy Walk

We had our annual Buddy Walk today at the Pine View Middle School track. It was a lot of fun and we had quite a few people come out. Actually it was at a pavillion right by the middle school, but close enough. Marilyn Saline and her family made us a huge pancake breakfast for those that came and it was mighty tasty. They are such a neat family to help us out all the time. They have this great big cooking stove and they could feed an army. I am so glad that it is over. I have been pretty stressed about the whole thing, especially since it was my first year to have the Buddy Walk since I have been the president. Glad that it wasn't a flop. At least I didn't think that it was. I am greatful that Suzie Smith (president of the State Board of the UDSF) came all the way down here to come to our walk. What a neat lady. Maybe someday I will be as on the ball as she is. I am going to start planning for our next buddy walk in January so it will be good!!

Finally Over

I am happy to say that the boutique is over and that is such a relief. I sold 4 of my alphabet books and about 20 cards. I sold a halloween 12x12 layout and a few other little things. It was good for me. I am glad that I made those books and posted them here. I am going to be making more of the alphabet books so if anyone wants one... Now I just need to get the buddy walk over with this weekend and I won't have to worry about anything other than my own life for a little while. It was great to have all that stuff to do to keep busy, but my house was starting to suffer, not that it doesn't anyway. Lets be honest. Laundry and I do not get along at all!! It is for the birds.
