Aviation Nation





















For the past 6 years Jerrick has wanted to attend aviation nation at Nellis, but something always comes up or we are out of town...well this year John, Daesha and Jerrick went and they loved it! Shan and I stayed home cause I knew she would get bored and want to leave sooner than the others.

Judges Cup Meet



Shandra's teammate Chalee



getting ready to start beam routine!





getting her medals







here are some pictures from Shandra's Meet. I am always amazed that these little girls have the courage to compete! I am sure it is so stressful but they do great anyway! Shandra's scores were a 9.05 on beam, a 9.425 on vault, a 9.15 on floor, and an 8.350 on bars. Good Job Shaney! Keep up the good work!

Halloween 2011

Daesha and Madison getting ready to be big stars in the Beta Haunted House. Daesha was disappointed cause she couldn't hit push or really scare anyone but it turned out cute.

Jerrick wanted to make his own costume so he is Jason from Friday the 13th and shan is a cute little ghost pirate! Daesha was way too cool to dress up this year so I just told everyone she dressed as an obnoxious teen!

















Pumpkin carving is always a happy time! Love the mess!









California 2011







they were thrilled to be there!













Jerrick eating a TURKEY leg and it grossed Daesha out!














We had a great time at Disneyland. California Adventures and the beach! The weather was perfect! I think Shan's favorite ride was splash mountain. It was fun seeing the picture of our whole family as we went over the edge. Daesha memorized where every camera was so she could get a pose in. She is such a ham! Jerrick loved the Indiana Jones ride even though I swear you could get whiplash from that ride. Daesha and Jerrick loved the screamin rollercoaster in CA Adventures and of course tower of terror was a favorite. Daesha again had some great poses on that ride! I should have bought a picture but I was so done with lines! I wanted the kids to go to Hollywood and see the stars, but the kids didn't think that was very cool so we just looked at a few and then went to the beach. They loved playing in the water even though it was very cold and when we got home had to take Shan and Daesha to DR for bronchitis.

Daesha's softball ice cream cake


Playing BABY DO YOU LOOVE ME?




Hayley, Matilda, Maddie, Ashley and in back Daesha and Madison



Sierra and Kasey decorated the walkway



WOW! She's a teenager! we had to pretty much celebrate the whole week! On her birthday she was treated like a queen and she acted like one too! Her friends in the neighborhood decorated the walkway with balloons and sidewalk chalk, then she was sung to on the bus and a few of her classes, and her school friends decorated her locker. At mutual that night they played softball in her honor. Friday we had her party! The started with a scavenger hunt, wich daesha's team lost cause they cheated, then played "baby, do you love me?" After dinner the girls decided to annoy the neighbors with ding dong ditching and just being crazy! Later they played the I NEVER game, LIPSTICK and STONES, and a game where they had to sing a song with a word they chose out of a can. It was harder than they thought it would be!

FoOtBaLl SeAsOn













I finally let Jerrick try tackle football. He is a good little player and hasn't hurt anything yet. He is so small but fast so when he gets someone he just holds on to them and won't let go. In the last game the guy was dragging him down the field but he held on. Looking forward to basketball

Shan's birthday party 2011

game time

sleeping on tramp



Jerrick lookin good!



The mustache gang without Jerrick and Eli







They all decided to get mustaches from the tickets that they won playing games! Adorable!!!

















We were finally able to have Shandra's party! She decided she wanted to go skating and have a sleepover! It was a bit crazy but I think all the girls had fun! Most of the girls had to go to gymnastics the next morning so I was a little worried they would get hurt, but no serious injuries occurred! A few minor bumps and bruises and some tired feet but it all turned out good! I only had a few pictures turn out cause I forgot that I turned off the flash for the last gymnastics meet! oh Well we all had fun! John even had a good time but a sore back later haha! After skating we came home and the girls decided to sleep outside on the tramp, so of course Daesha and Jerrick had to try to scare them...I think the only one scared was Shadow (our big black dog)!
