This is too cool

My Ashlee

This is my Ashlee.

She is my first born and she is 15 years old.
Ashlee and I are pretty close, we've been through a lot together.
Ashlee was my rock with Butter died.
She went to school the next day and her teacher was shocked to hear she had lost her brother she was so composed and even-tempered.
Ashlee has always been a pretty cool chick.
She has an amazing personality and is a talented artist.
Ashlee can't draw people and that bothers her.
But put Ashlee on the computer and she can make the coolest pictures I've ever seen.
To me that makes her extra special, she could be a graphic artist and work for Disney!!
Then she could fly her mom out to Cali and we could see Mickey together.
Ashlee loves being different and expressing herself.
I love my Ashlee and how much she helps me and cares about others.
She is a good big sister and TRIES to help Ayanna be a better daughter.
This is my Ashlee.

I'm horrible

At updating my blog :(

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

So, this year for Halloween, Ayanna decided to be a 70's go go girl. We got everything but the boots because .. well .. she's only eleven and I'm not going to buy boots she'll only wear once! At least we got the costume for a fairly good deal at Party City.

Here is the complete outfit. It came with a hat, the dress and a really cute belt that you can't see very well in the picture ... sorry

Of course we love the hat and had to pose with it.
Strike a pose

And a close up of the makeup.
Now for the amazing part. I was doing her makeup when I realized just how LONG and THICK this girl's eyelashes are!! Seriously, once I put mascara on them they looked fake. There are a lot of women that pay good money for lashes like these!
And we can't forget about the lips. This girl has beautiful lips and will never have to get a collagen injection!

MY AYANNA

This is my Ayanna. She is 11 years old and has the funniest sense of humor of anyone I know. She loves to test me on a daily basis, but is fun to be around.

She loves to dance

She loves to sing

She loves to talk on the phone about "who's hating on who" at school

And she is convinced that everyone is jealous of her.

And who wouldn't be? Look at that smile!

My favorite part of this picture? The scar on her knee. Because it shows she takes after her mother who as my mother told me time and time again "will never be Miss America with knees like that!"

I love my Ayanna
