In the past month Megan has had an interest in pageants. she started practicing about 3 weeks ago for the nibley city royalty pageant which was on may 22nd. Adam was megan's escort. he was so cute everone awwed when he came out with megz.she won junior miss first attendant. this past weekend may 29th megan was in another pageant ( the diamond star pageant.) in this pageant she won the junior diamond supreme, which means she won her age group. we couldn't be more proud of her. she has worked so hard and in so little time. i still can't believe it. Our dear friend julia helped coach megz for the pageants.

After 8 monthes of building we are soo glad to be in our house. we finished the house in January 2007. Since then we have added a side driveway, storage shed, and garden. The garden went in the first year. I am very big on gardening and using what you have. almost everthing i cook comes from my garden. My husband is also a hunter so most of our meat comes from that. My kids love elk steaks.
