Miss Irish Rose Pageant

Kristen Brings Home 1st Runner Up
In the Miss Irish Rose Pageant


The Miss Irish Rose Pageant was held on March 15th in Shamrock Texas. This pageant draws girls from all over the area.

Obviously we were very excited about Kristen winning 1st runner up. She had a wonderful time and enjoyed the two days of contest events. Kristen is the Wellington Lions Club Queen this year and was representing them at this pageant.

Kristen will also participate in pageant at Dalhart Texas in April.

Good friends - Thomas Reeves, Kristen, Carley Holland

A couple of friends of Kristen, Lucinda & Shanise who are attending school at Mid Western in Wichita Falls, were doing a video documentary about all a girl has to go through to participate in a pageant. I cant wait to see it.

I think Kristen really enjoyed wearing "girl" cloths.

Happy Easter & Birthdays

Sorry I have been negligent in my weekly postings. Lately my travel schedule has not left me much time to play. This should catch you up a little on our bunch.



The Resurrection

When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus' body. Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb and they asked each other, "Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?"

But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.

"Don't be alarmed," he said. "You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, 'He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.' "

Mark 16: 1-7
