BELLHOP 2012

Kaitlyn and Keegan Honas

Lovely Ladies
Bailey Kraus, Emilie Cartmill, Kaitlyn, Larisa Wilburn and Jodi Johnson

 Boys in back:  Chance Henke, Evan Cunningham, Keegan Honas and Peyton Lerner

Strapless dresses.....need I say more?

After adjustments...

Girls in front, boys in the back -- due to seniority or chivalry?
And yes, that hot ride they are taking is Terry's '89 Cadillac!

 Kaitlyn and Austin McNorton -- Doesn't that KU tie go well with his purple shirt?
Several years ago, Austin made a bet with Terry that K-State would make it to a National Championship
 game within three years or he would wear a KU tie to BellHop his freshman year....he lost. Being a diehard Wildcat, he was a great sport about it!  He managed to pay off his debt even though his family now lives in Eudora.

Aubrey dressed up for the CGMS Winter Concert
She is in the mixed choir and had a short duet part in one of the songs.



SCHOOL BOARD PRESENTATION
Four members -- Kaitlyn Powell, Jodi Johnson, Brianna Salas and Mary Alsobrooks -- of the new Management and Leadership class at CGHS reported on their study of the need for additional snack shack space and improvements to the restroom facilities at the football stadium.  The student met with various individuals and the city building inspector during their study, and asked the school board to consider an upgrade.  They suggested a new building for the snack shack and restrooms.

room to review for the presentation and then directly to the school board meeting.

A Girl and Her Dog

Almost two months ago now (October 19th), Aubrey went birthday shopping with her Nana (Rilla), to include a visit to Helping Hands Humane Society.  You know they weren't going in there without coming out with something.  She's been asking for a puppy for forever.  So, better late than never, meet Shaggy aka Shwag aka ShagWag, nickname "Bubala".  He's part Lhaso Apso, part traveling salesman and he is four.  Aubrey says his favorite color is green..... He's pretty adorable, isn't he? 


 He's a beggar, this one.
He can sit like this for a VERY long time!

He's spoiled rotten -- sleeps with Aubrey every night. 
The upside is she doesn't get up in the middle of the night as much now, I've noticed.

Actively Involved



FCCLA Fall Leadership Conference at Wamego High
(Family, Career & Community Leaders of America)

Michaela and Kaitlyn

BLOCK PARTY
Kaitlyn was in the Management and Leadership class that hosted a Block Party during first trimester finals. They planned all the events so students exempt from finals would have the opportunity to play the Wii, board games, ping pong, cards, and other games. Kaitlyn said it seemed very successful.  She is pictured in this group playing cards. 

 Lights, Camera, Action
Kaitlyn was the Light Designer for the fall play 
and was also part of the costume/makeup crew.


Late Night Show
Dance Contest
A parody of Dancing with the Stars had the senior boy basketball players performing dance numbers with the Bravettes and then each "couple" was judged. HILARIOUS!

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
 A night of wrestling, Lady Braves basketball scrimmage and
  then a game of Knock Out against the wrestlers, which the girls won, of course!

Kaitlyn says "Mine!"

And now her "BUSY" season begins!
