Super Great. Super 8!!

My sweet Hayley Starr is turning 8 this month. I am in awe of such a beautiful girl in spirit and in life. I was able to spend the afternoon with her, being my model. Here are a few of my favorites...
Her dress is just like her personality. Colorful and fun.
Truly amazing...

She is so fun..


Choo Choo...coming through.

I am truly grateful to have this tender and loving girl as my daughter. Happy Birthday Hayley!

Midnight Mania

This week the girls were able to take a cheer class from the Cedar High Cheerleaders. Then, were able to perform the whole first quarter at the Football game on Friday. They had so much fun each practice, and were just dying of excitement on game night.

Emmy was so excited to get out on the field.
Emmy and two of her favorite people, Bailey and Jerika. All three are dolls!

Go Redmen!

Hayley and Emmy were able to take a cheer class last week, and then able to perform at Cedar High's football game on Friday Night. They had such a great time, and performed the whole first quarter. Cute girls. Enjoy!Emmy was so excited to be a 'big girl' and able to keep up with big sis Hayley.

Hay and her good friend Sophia. They were hilarious out there together, and actually learned the cheers very well.


Two of Em's favorite people, Bailey and Jerika. She was so proud that they were cheering her on. Thanks girls!

Way to cheer girls. Go Team!!

How Sweet is this little boy? We have been so lucky to be able to love on him.

Thanks Becca, for sharing your darling baby boy!

Twi-licious

Yet another Midnight Movie with the girlies. We had a great time this year, and went for the whole shebang. We were in the theater by 5pm, and watched Twilight, New Moon, and then the opening of Eclipse. Super fun. Who knew that 9 hours at the movies would go by so fast?

Tammy, Heather, Brooke, Amy and Ginger. The lady next to Ginger brought a cooler, which we thought was a great idea. Until she kept pulling beer out. Drunk as a skunk!

We couldn't forget the Forks sign. One more time ladies!

We had our very own "tent" scene. Bring it on Vamps and Wolves. We can take it!

So the ladies from top left: Tammy, Heather, Brooke, Amy, Ginger, Jenny Liz, and her mom, Pam. She fit right in! (Super cute)

I had such a great time. It is so fun to let go, be silly, cat-call and just enjoy the night. What is next? We need another sequel!

Reunion previews...

Summer is the season for family reunions, and we had our first of the season this past Saturday. I was able to snap some very fun pictures of Brent's immediate and extended family. Just wanting to get some of these posted so the family can look at them all. Enjoy!

Brent's Grandma Betty, Parents, and Uncle and Aunts.

Most of the Schoppmann cousins.

Brent, Gaona, April and Shauna.

Thanks to everyone for letting me boss them around for pictures! I'll try to get Cd's out to you all!

Practice, Practice

My kiddies are such good sports, as I yet again dragged them out to do pictures. I promise, I will conquer this! ( I hope) Here we go.....

A textbook Emmy pout..

But a beautiful smile...

Playful.....

Silly...

Showing off... and yes, her dress really is this bright! So spunky, just like her!

And artistic...

Simple...

Hayley Starr is becoming such a beautiful girl, and growing up way too fast for her mom!

Sweet...

Lovely...

And Silly Hunter. He is so proud of his stinking cute little hamster, 'Widget'. (And I mean stinky!)

Isn't Widget quite the poser?

Hunt wasn't as interested in modeling for me, but I still got this cute shot of him.

Thanks to my sweet kids, for letting me bug them.....again!

And for my post favorite. I swear Emmy is giving me the low-down.

Fun!
