I wouldn't be comfortable in an Auburn t-shirt either..


LCHS Senior Kristin's dog Riley wouldn't be still for a picture with his little Auburn shirt. But we took it off and got a great shot of the two of them. Which goes to show you....
just because you're a Auburn fan.... that doesn't mean your dog has to be one too. Roll Tide!!!
=)
I had a great session today with Kristin...... that's with an I-N not E-N!

2007 Graduations ... LCHS and ELHS....




Underneath two beautiful sunsets, and near perfect evenings, I watched the LCHS and ELHS Class of 2007....... graduate high school.
It's bittersweet isn't it?
At LC, as Byrd sang, Iwatched you reminisce. I saw some tears.
At EL, as your speakers spoke, I saw the dreams in your eyes.
So what do you do? Do you reflect, and look back, or do you surge ahead and never look back.
Well, ...... you do both.
Because as the years begin to roll by now.... 5, 10 and even 20 years from now, you will run into your class mates. Whether it be at the grocery store, the mall in Birmingham, at the lake, on the beach, at work, or at an airport in Boston, .... you will see them.
And you will remember ....."we finished school together". And you will know then..... that you have a friend............. and that will mean alot to you.
Good luck to you all, Class of '07.
I really enjoyed getting to meet you.
Dream big dreams.

I had lots of fun.........and got my picture made too!

While doing LCHS Spring and Friends pictures. We got Logan to make a family portrait for us. All he had to do was mash the button. I think he did a good job!
This was one of my favorites.
And I did alot of big groups of "friends". That's great!
You need all the friends you can get.

Area Tournament.....LCHS Talent Show.......




The LCHS Lady Devils and the ELHS Lady Eagles are battling for the Area championship today.
If they ever made a movie called
"The Innings, Has Eyes". It would be based on the 10th inning the Eagles had vs Priceville yesterday. But I know they will bounce back.
TALENT SHOW!!!!!
What a great job by everyone who competed! There was so much variety! Piano, Dance, Rock and Roll guitar, solos, drum solos and a cool little song with a twist by Marlie.
I really enjoyed the show. And Also, good job Mackenzie for your choreography. Awesome.

2007 Hee Haw...............


I enjoyed a great show Sat. night! Good Job everybody.
I really enjoyed "Rindercella" again. Good job Scott.
I think my favorite performance this year was by Gaylon and Kendra,
singing "Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man". Conway who?
Have ya'll heard James "Elvis"Cole sing? That son of gun can sing.
I was supposed to get to play piano for the "Oak Ridge Boys" tonight.. but one of them blew out his knee and couldn't sing, so they cancelled. ?????? I'm not a singer, but I didn't know you had to use your knees.
Thanks Century 21 and all the sponsors who put together this fund raiser for the American Cancer Society.
