Nationals - Cheer

This weekend we attended the American Showcase National Championships in Anaheim, CA. It was a fun weekend. Lauren's team did great. They finished in 4th out of about 30 teams. It was so fun to watch them. This is the last year Lauren will compete as a mini. Next year she moves up to the Youth division.

Blaire also competed. She competed on two teams. One of her teams did great (see below) and the other team also did well. However, they had very tough competition. It was a great cheer weekend.

Egg Hunt 2012

Part of our Easter celebration is the annual family egg hunt. Lauren was assigned the green eggs. She had a great time but one of her eggs remain hidden. She told me she is going to look again tomorrow.

Happy Easter!!

Easter 2012

We went over to Don and Janine's home to celebrate Easter. We started the day going to church as a family. It was a wonderful service. We then went back to the Helton's for a wonderful lunch and of course some family pictures.

We saw these really cute devil's eggs on line. We had to try them out. I think they turned out great. Great job Elaine, Sammie and Lauren.

Easter Morning

Easter morning is a wonderful Lauren and mommy time. Lauren gets up and is always excited to see what is in her Easter basket. She loved everything in it this year. She even told she got some much more than she thought she would get and that she loved it all. That made my heart happy.

We then have a egg hunt around the home. We are still missing one of the eggs. I am sure we will find it when we clean next.

It was then time to get ready for church and our family Easter.
