Daddy Daughter Date Night 2011

He washed the '55 and put on a tie. 

She painted her nails and had Big Sis do her hair.

And...they are both wearing smell good stuff!

 And they're off!

I think a daddy spending time with his little girl is the 

most important thing he can ever do for her.

Of Daddy-Daughter Dates Past

Daddy-Daughter Date Night is a spring fundraiser done by PEO.  They have a DJ, refreshments and photos by Sister Act Photography.  They use the prom backgrounds for photos each year.

I had to talk Terry into taking the girls to the first one.

Fortunately, there were lots of dads for him to hang with and they had a blast.

I think these first two photos were taken by Mary Kay....

 A Girl Down -- Just Dauber and Daddy
Kaitlyn made the decision not to go (a sad day for Daddy) because
very few girls her age were going.  I think she worked that evening instead....

Aubrey - Age 9

Tonight, Aubrey and her daddy will be attending again. 

I am so glad Terry and his girls have had this time to spend together.

Little Miss Blue Eyes

 

Seriously, can this girl take a bad photo?

The Greatest Comeback of All Time....Jesus!

HALLELUJAH!

Yes, the Easter Bunny still visits our house. 

Of course, now the girls hunting for eggs is more like a vacuum running loose in the house!

They suck them all up within minutes.  I miss the wonder and excitement from when they were little.

 Counting and inspecting the loot!

Terry and Aubrey got up before dawn to go to Sunrise Service at our church.  When they came home, we had our Easter egg hunt and then got ready for church.  After church,  Terry's parents came over for lunch.  Terry smoked a brisket, which was wonderful.   Then we sat around and visited, watched TV, took a few catnaps.  Terry played in his garage and the girls played outside.  I did basically nothing....It was a lovely day.

Paw Paw - Mastermind of the Egg Hunt

We celebrated Easter on the Sill side Saturday evening -- supper and an egg hunt that included us grown-up kids.  And we will celebrate Easter again with the Powell family next Sunday.

Prom 2011

Kaitlyn and Shelbie Eisenhut were asked to be the servers at the CGHS Junior/Senior Prom.

They were in charge of handing out bottled water and pop to thirsty dancers and even got to dance a little themselves. 

Kaitlyn has friends from all over the world!

Nun is a foreign exchange student -- from Thailand, I think.

Shelbie was her co-server.

2011 Cruis'n & Cook'n Auto Show

This was our third year to attend the car show in Osage City, but the first year for Dale and Judy to come with us.  Terry drove his 1955 Chevy Bel Air and Dale drove Judy's 1929 Model A.  We had a good time looking at all the different cars, eating the BBQ lunch the Osage High School band serves as a fundraiser, and sitting around visiting.   Terry won a socket holder as a door prize and Dale and Judy won a big toolbox on a cart, but our cars didn't win any awards.

Chrissa and Bailey are ready to go cruisin' in their new outfits.

I remembered I had the poodle skirt my grandma made for Jennifer when she was a little girl and Aubrey thought it would be fun to wear it for awhile since we have a car from the '50's.  Grandma Judy took the pictures of her posing by our car.

It was great that Aubrey had someone in Osage City to hang out with.

Her parents (Dave and Tracy) even fed us supper after the car show!

 1957 Chevrolet Handyman Wagon -- it has three seats and the back one

folds down to give more trunk space.  This is what I need instead of my minivan!
