My little girl has become a teenager - time passes by way too soon.

Beautiful - and she has a kind face.

The reason she had two escorts...one of the other sr girls was off playing in a tennis tourney...the month delay really messed things up...they had to move everything up to the next home game, which was last night, and since SAT's were this morning, they didn't want to have the dance after the game. It was tonight...and I don't think anyone went.

Normally, they have a nice four level platform...one for each grade....with big wicker chairs for the girls to set in and watch the game from the 50 yr line....a queens court sort of thing. But this year it was so chilly and windy, and they waited until the last minute to even decide what to do...so we just stood on the track and it was short and sweet, and over long before people started showing up.

Both car dealers in town folded/sold out this year, so there were no convertables for the girls to ride in during the parade, so they rode in golf carts, which was better than riding on a tractor...but it made for a very short parade. So she kinda got robbed...as far as the glitz and glory stuff goes...but she doesn't really care for that type of thing anyway.

She is very proud to have won, and of course we are very proud of her, and I guess that's all that really matters....thank you guys for the nice comments.

I can't think of anything better than the homecoming queen riding a tractor.

It is great watching our children grow, CJane. I have followed your thread for almost five years now.

Whoa nelly. So grown-up. I agree with Osso, that's a good face. Love the haircut.

Thanx - yes, it's been a while since we started this thread, and have seen
our kids in various stages and ages. It's nice though, isn't it?

Halloween princess.

WOW - 6Packs.... what a beauty your daughter is. Ahhhhhh.... simply stunning. x

CJ - how did I miss pics of your girlie before.... gosh, gorgeous gal - she looks so grown up... she's perfect - look at her eyes... they are huge... she's gonna break some hearts a?

Absolutely agree there RogRat.

ok..... so, can ya pass the kitchen roll...


<melts>


SheW ... I love your baby Bean <sigh>

She has broken a few hearts already, Izzie.

Oh look at that little girl who all of a sudden looks so grown up. With make-up
you can tell that she's her mother's daughter.

I was Annie's running buddy this morning for a 5K run. Annie trains with an organization for elementary school girls called "Girls On The Run". Today's run was at the stadium for Chicago's professional soccer team, The Chicago Fire.

Very nice picture, wandel. I like Annie's choice of colors. Tell her those are
my favorite colors. Were you able to keep up with the "girls on the run"?

Funny you should ask, CJane. I asked Annie not to do any sprinting so that I could keep up with her. However, Annie's girlfriend noticed that their school principal with her daughter were up ahead. They sprinted to catch up with their principal and I was left in the dust. Annie finished thirty seconds ahead of me.

i have a cute little puppy visitor.



Her name is Grilka.
I think that is how you spell it.

Anyway, she is Mr Wolf's best friends dog. He took his christmas vacation and went to California. So we said we would watch her for him.
Im not a dog person. Not in the least.
But this has to be the best dang dog I have ever met. She is a mini Doberman. You would expect her to be very high strung and yippy like those dang chi-wow-ahhs.
Nope. Not at ALL!
I can even hold both her and one of my cats in my lap at the same time and everyone is comfortable.
i would totally keep her if I could

oh my gosh.
the photo I remember you posting last, I think we was about 10.
looked NOTHING like she does now.

She is sooo pretty.
You are going to have a hell of a time with those boys ya know.. haha

Thank you, shewolf. You wait, in a few years, Jillian will generate a boy crowd
wherever she goes. I have already several "son-in-laws" - one wants to marry her later on and have 10 kids!!!! but she's telling me that they're all so immature, hehe.

That dog is so cute, but this one must be an exception, then mostly they are
yappers and very high strong.

These are our Christmas pictures. Lilly dog hasn't been cooperative at all...
