Starting Early

You can't keep them babies for ever. 
My 2 little ones have made the 1year mark and it seems they have grown up so much since they made the big 1.

One is 4-wheeler riding already on a power wheel. They teach them early around here. 


After a few lessons, Cohen knows just what to do. 

Where oh where are my little babies? 
They are growing up way too fast.





Fair winning

This is another winning crown post. 
The baby division 12-17 months at the 
Livingston Parish Fair Pageant had 11 participants. 
And little Miss Brooklyn got 1st runner up. 


Of course we wanted queen, but 1st is the next best. 


It's really exciting to win or place.
But like all competitions, 
we may not win or place everytime. 
One must prepare and do your best, 
compete for the right reasons, 
and enjoy it because It's something you want to do. 

We've enjoyed the pageant scene. 


Yayyy Brooklyn

Festival Life

The best part of fall is the festivals and fairs and the few great holidays. People, food, fun, activities, excitement, and fall 
weather fill the air.

Our festivals begin with Walker Pine Tree
Festival in my home town. Where I grew up, went to school, raised our family, our kids went To school here and still live
In the area. 

Our first attraction was the kiddie rides. 


I watched Brooklyn and her mom ride 
While the others ate peanuts and funnel 
Cake. 


But the best part of my day was the Walker Pine Tree Festival Pageant.  And the Baby Miss Walker Pageant Queen was Brooklyn. She's the big baby being held by Another queen on the right side of  The picture. 


 Sorry you have to read about another
Pageant. But we are on a roll. And we have to get while the gettings good. lol.

The pre-teen and above wore evening gowns. The younger ones were to wear denim attire. She did terrific today. Here she is on stage between sessions holding her Crown. Her dress is hiked up
Above her petti skirt here and kinda unruly. But she looked and did great on stage in front of the judges. 


It was a good day!
