NAMISS Pageant Friday!

Well Friday came and it was a super busy day.  Gratefully we didn't have to be at the hotel until a little later in the morning so we got there early.  I when I say early I mean really early.  LOL!

As we headed out for the day.

Yep had the whole crew in tow.


We didn't have to be there until 10:30 am and so we got there at 9:00 am.  Gratefully we did since Nikole actually forgot her shoes that she was going to wear during the formal wear.  I had to make sure Nikole and Rhett were going to stay in one spot and I packed up Gavin and Dylan and raced home just to get her shoes.  I was able to get her shoes and made it back before 10:00 am.  I was so excited that when I got back Nikole and Rhett were still there.  Nikole and Rhett were able to watch the talent show of a few different groups.  Then we headed to the room where Nikole would compete in the actress competition.

Yep I had them all together and they were all sitting eating since they were all hungry.  This was the room and it was before her performance.

He was excited to be here and cheer his sister on.

See she isn't worried is she?  This was before she had to get up and act. :)

Here she is sitting with the Jr. Pre-Teens waiting for the time to get up and act.

She was one of 5 girls in Jr. Pre-Teen.  The bad part was that 4 of the girls including Nikole said the same line. :(  Oh well.  This was her line...

"Mickey, Goofy, Donald Duck and me.  You will find us in the city where magic happens..... Disneyland!  The happiest place on earth."

This is her saying her line.  She just wanted to stand there and not use her hands.  She got all the words correct but it wasn't as emotional as the other girls.

The problem that she had was that she was not as animated as the other girls.  I was really hoping that she would get into it a little bit but that was not to be.

After her actress attempt we had time to kill. LOL!

She was happy with herself and enjoying herself too.

I wanted to get a hair pose since I did her hair and I was trying to get a before and after her formal wear and her other things that she was in.

Since we had so much time on our hand she was able to get on the stage and practice her personal introduction.

Of course the boys were a great help and Nikole practiced and practiced again and again.

Like I said a big help.  LOL!  They look so happy huh?

Ha ha ha!!!  Silly boy waiting and for Nikole to get ready for her formal event.

Nikole made some new friends playing and practicing before her formal event.

It was great how they were announcing each other and then taking turns practicing their personal introduction.

They are getting ready to do a dance. LOL!!!

Line them up and try to do the can can.  LOL!  None of them could actually do it.

Than they tried to do a simple circle dance but they were told they needed to stop and take their seats and get ready for the photo shoot and the formal wear competition.

Can you see who is going to escort Nikole? :)  LOL!!

Prepping the stage and making it ready for the final photo shoot.

This is the Jr. Pre-Teen photo shoot.  These are all of Nikole friends. :)

She looks so happy.  I just wish we could control her hair a little bit more.

They are practicing the walk for formal wear.

She takes center stage.  What a princess! :)

What a great brother and sister!!!  This is a perfect picture!! :)

He is bored waiting for Nikole's formal event.  LOL!  What a cutie!!

As you can see the boys have the camera while I help get Nikole ready.

Yep they were bored, but at least they all stayed in one spot. :)

This was right before daddy came.  They were very bored and it was hard keeping them all together.

This was after daddy got there and Dylan was pretending to be a gorilla, and then he fell over. LOL!

This is his gorilla.  He says the gorilla is his.  He loves those apes!! :)

This was Nikole's Formal event!  She is BEAUTIFUL!!!!  I tried to get some more pictures but they are all blurry.


This was after Nikole was done.  He is such a cutie!!! :)  LOL!  CHEESE!

Dylan took this picture after her event and it turned out great!

We went to dinner since we were all starving and Nikole wanted to go to the 50's party.

It was yummy and the kids behaved ok considering they have been sitting most of the day.

After dinner I took the younger kids home and dropped them off while I took the older kids back for the 50's party.  Rhett joined on the stage with all the boys and men who were there for the boy's dance competitions.  They all got up and danced to see who was the best.

Well to say the least he made it to the finals!  He kicked some BUTT!  What a great dancer! He he he

As we wait for the results for the dance competition.

As you can see he won the dance off!  He got the most cheers and screams.

This is a great hair shot since this is how I did it for the formal event and I really wanted to show my sister who is waiting to see what I pulled off. :)

Right at the end of the day Friday.  I was glad to see the day end.  
It was a long day and everyone was ready for bed.

Then it was Saturday and that is a different post later today.  I am glad that she was able to experience everything that she wanted to.  She was amazing!!!  I loved watching her and see how much she is growing.
