Sweetheart Pageant

Our sweet, and shy Sydney entered the Sweetheart Pageant hosted by the local Kiwanis.

We went through the pains and labors of finding the perfect gown, and shoes and teaching her how to walk, and all that fun stuff. Aunt Teresa came over and took many pictures of her that day.... she had her hair done at the salon in town. Heather did a gorgeous job on her hair and make up!!!

Here are some pictures of that,...

This is Sydney when we were trying on different gowns,... this was the keeper!!

Here she is after having her hair and make up all done up!! Gorgeous dahling!!!

The poor girl was so nervous,... she didn't have a hair in her face, yet she had the nervous habit of moving it out of her face anyhow.... but gosh she looks so beautiful!!! I had tears in my eyes watching her.

The final contestant line up and awards


While she didn't win, we were very proud of her for trying. This was her first pageant, and she hopes to do another one. Especially now that she knows what to expect :o)
