Pageant Queen!

                      On the weekend of March 2nd, Sarai competed in the Our Diamond Miss pageant here in San Angelo. She ended up winning her division! She was crowned 0-12 month Our Diamond Miss Modeling winner as well as Most Beautiful! :) I am so proud! Her Nana, PawPaw Hooker, Aunt Kayla, Uncle Paul, PawPaw Adams, Nanna, Auntie Steph, Auntie Court, Rafers, Mommy, and Daddy were all there to support her! She did so well!

                    I never thought I would put Sarai in pageants because of the things I have seen on TV through the show Toddlers and Tiaras and others! I really don't want Sarai to feel she has to change or enhance her beauty to feel like she is someone special.. but through the natural pageant systems there is none to minimal makeup allowed, you can just wear a pretty dress and not worry about spending thousands of dollars! The kids are learning to be poised, have confidence, and even public speaking! They do interviews with the kiddos, and of course these kiddos get to dress up and feel like little princesses and princes! Who doesn't want their kid to get to feel like that? :) I definitely think we will continue to do pageants as long as Sarai shows an interest and we are able to! Of course right now she is a lil baby and doesn't really care but soon enough she'll know whats going on!!

                  Here are a few pictures from the weekend! It was really fun! After the pageant we went down the Texas Independence day festival and looked through vendor booths, a car/motorcycle show,  tasted some food at the cook off pits, and watched a few entertainer groups with all the family! Kayla and Paul ended up staying the night and we played board games! It was such a great day!
