Elena's First Cheerleading Competition

Elena had her first cheer competition today! She has been super nervous about it but when the moment happened, she rocked it! The team didn't win but they are a brand new squad and by the time this first competition came they ALL had their back walkovers so they will only get better with time. I'm so proud of my babygirl! I think she has found a sport that she absolutely loves.

Halloween 2012

We had a great halloween! I took the whole day off and spent it at both kids schools going back and forth from party to party.  I also decided that since I would not be at work and after school we were going straight to trick or treat anyway, that I would go ahead and dress up. Me, Krissy and a friend of ours all dressed like old ladies. Complete with grey hair and everything.  When we went trick or treating, we got to go with Alysha and Mike in their train. The kids had a lot of fun doing it that way. Here are some pics of the kids, us, and our night.  

Elena's Birthday Sleepover

My babygirl turned 7!!! She is getting so big so fast. This year instead of having a big party we decided to have a girls only sleepover with a few of her school friends. We kicked daddy and Landon out and sent them to the camp for the weekend. Once they left we got started. We had lots of stuff to make and decorate. She helped through all of it. Saturday evening the girls started pouring in. I had stuff planned most of the night so they wouldn't run too crazy around the house. We played a toenail polish game called Spin the Bottle. We made our own rag flip flops. The girls then had a jello race (which by the way was hilarious to watch). We made our own lava lamps to take home and we even did glitter tattoos. I don't think they even laid down until midnight. I think the girls had a great time. I know I had fun watching them. Girls are so cute at this age. 7 girls in the house and noone fought or fussed the whole time. It was a great night. She cannot wait for her next sleepover!!! Here is just a few pics from the night and I tried not to include the other girls faces only bc I don't know how their parents would feel so unfortunately I can only show a glimpse of our awesome night.
