We have needed a lot of bows lately. We have gotten quite a few from Ms Shannon. I think bows look cuter in the hair than without it, so here are some photos of my girls with the bows. The first shot was a korker bow we had before Holly cut her hair. The rest of the bows were ordered to help mom be happy with the haircut.

I realize that Rachael didn't have a hair cut but she TOTALLY loves that this bow matches her outfit!!!!

Lillian turned 9!

Lillian turned 9! Many of us were there to celebrate with her.. No brothers though.

I think her favorite gift for the evening was a lime green umbrella.

Happy Birthday Lillian! We love you!

Spencer's first Promenade dance

This is the young lady Spencer asked to the prom. Her name is Bekah and she is showing off her dancing shoes. Remarkably she was able to dance all night and keep her shoes on!

Introducing our Very Handsome Spencer.. Yes he feels right at home in that tux, he wears it A LOT!

Spencer looking sharp in tux,silver vest with purple tie!

Spencer and Bekah at her house before the dance (These two were a big part of creating the dances and teaching them to all of those participating in Promenade. Spencer even had the kids in formation so at the end you could look down an see a 2012 outlined in their ending positions)

I asked them to dance so I could have an action shot, they both LOVE to dance so that was an easy request!

A group shot outside Bekah's house just before we race home for the tickets. Then they were off to the Capital building for the night.

Family Status

Bruce has moved to a new area, Denton, TX. He loves that it is a college town. Spencer has been dropped off for his one semester college experience at BYU - Provo. He is excited to go to classes and learn to feed himself. He seems to be taking care of himself just fine, Within an hour of being back in his apartment he had his router set up and was getting internet on his computer. The older girls have started school and are doing well. It was exhausting, but the Show choir and Ballroom performance on the first day went well for the senior. The Senior and Sophmore have survived 2 days so far. The 7th grader did very well adjusting to lockers and middle school. She didn't get lost, and it only took 10 tries at the end of the day to get her locker open! We walked the 5th grader to her class the first day and she thinks her teacher is fantastic! Still waiting for Kindergarten assignments so we will know who Holly's teacher is. She starts a week after everyone else. I am sort of in mourning after sending off the college boy. He also has finished both of his interviews and submitted his paperwork to be called on a mission . Excited to see where he will be called!
