Maysen MVP

We had our Evening in Excellence tonight.  Camee was in charge.  She did a sports theme.  I went over to help Camee and Becky this afternoon. I cut a lot of astroturf!  I think everything turned out great and the night was really fun.  Maysen and Dixie received their Personal Progress awards.  They had a table set up for them as the MVPs.  Athena and Kelsee were the announcers.  Of course Athena spoke in a British accent the entire time.  Cracks me up.
The girls made the decorations last week.  I think they really enjoyed that.  Plus they got to run through the Go Angels banner below.  Too bad Jaime and I sent them in too early.  Oh well.
As part of a skit the girls dressed up Nicole in a football uniform. Maysen's was Good Works which they somehow related to face paint. Maysen got to draw the black lines under Nicole's eyes.  Good thing Nicole is such a good sport!

 These girls earned lots of ribbons this year.  Love them!
Stockton has a hard time getting his teeth to fall out.  Usually they stay in until the dentist pulls them.  His permanent teeth do not grow under his baby teeth, they grow to the side.  It looks really weird.  Once the baby tooth is out, somehow magically his tooth ends up in the correct position.  Stockton's last baby tooth is ready to come out.  He wanted it out so bad and has been working on it for a couple of weeks.  Today he asked Mike to get it out for him.  Oh boy.  First Mike tried pliers.

That didn't work, so he tied dental floss around it to try and yank it out.
That didn't work either.  Then he couldn't get the dental floss off of his tooth.  He cut it short and told Stockton he would have to go to school like that.  Stockton didn't think that was a good idea.  Mike finally gave Stockton some ice cream to 'numb' his tooth.  Then he kept pulling and pulling and pulling until the tooth finally came out.
 Last tooth!  Thank goodness!
