Lily was in her first pageant on Saturday Feb 9, 2008. She did such a good job. She didn't place, but she still got a trophy and she had a GREAT time. She loved getting all dressed up, with make-up and her hair looked beautiful (even if I do say so myself). There were, of course, little proper pageant girls in it that won. You could tell that even though they were just around 2 or 3, they had probably been in hundreds of pageants. I can't stand it when you see moms standing behind their kids telling them, "remember to smile", "stand up straight", "look at the judges", etc.... Those poor girls just don't stand a chance of being normal. They have to be "on" all the time. For us, it was just a great time getting all dressed up. Anyway, I couldn't be prouder of "MY QUEEN". I have attached a few pictures of her. She is so beautiful!!!!
I also wanted to say a quick "Thank You" to those of you that came to my Mary Kay party yesterday!! I had such a great time, and I hope everyone else did as well!! Thank you to those of you who booked parties as well. I will definately help you all out with orders!! Jennifer, thank you for the kind words that you said about me (thank you to the rest of you too!!). It really makes me feel good to know that I have been an influence in all of your lives. I would like to say that I don't know where I would be today if it wasn't for all of you. It is such a blessing to have a christian family. I can't imagine how difficult it would be. I have married into such a fantastic family, and I don't know what I would do without all of you!!!!
I hope that you all have a GREAT week!! We love you all!!!!

Lily getting ready!!! She was a little nervous!! 
Don't you just love her smile for the judges!! It is just so cute when children have that fake smile!!
She at least remembered to keep her "smile" while walking!!!
She absolutely refused to walk by herself. I even had to help her do her turn. But I wasn't about to make her go out there by herself. She was nervous, and there was no reason to make her afraid.
She is SOOO beautiful!!!
I did her hair myself!! It turned out beautiful (to give myself a compliment!!)!
Walking again!! She is so proud of her trophy! It is on display in her bookshelf!! I am just glad that she had such a good time, and that she wasn't heartbroken about not winning!!! I don't really even think she noticed that she didn't "win", because she got the trophy. I'm glad that they did it that way so the non-winners wouldn't feel so left out!!!

Heather she was so adorable. I loved her hair too, you did a great job on it. Its great they gave all of them a trophy. I loved her lil dress too.
So pretty.
Some of those pagent moms really scare me though!! Seriously!! I refused to put mine in pagents because those kind of parents would not want to talk with me. LOL. I know my limitations so I am staying far far away. Hehehe.
I am glad you had a good experience and Lilly looks like such an angel. I wish there was a way to do a pagent with only moms like YOU. That would be fun!!
Lily...typo's again sorry.
