Bo's Entertainment Center is HOME!





Who needs to put a big t.v. in Bo's entertainment center when we can just put Bo! Ah, it looks so great downstairs. I really can't wait to get the t.v. in there. Move over Bo.

Our Junior All American Champ





Mariah had her final competition at Lagoon last weekend. It is the largest dance competition in the United States. She did great. In fact, she did so well that she earned the highest award possible for her division. She is a Junior All American. Since we really don't know what that means, we had to ask her teacher and Amanda said again and again...that this was REALLY REALLY good! Cool.

Awesome Mother's Day

Mother's Day was absolutely great at this house. It started out with a made to order breakfast in bed from Mariah. One egg over easy and toast (lightly toasted) with strawberry jam and juice.

Then the Maurice's fairy made a successful trip to my house and blessed me with two stunning outfits!

A long nap followed and then a phone call to our most wonderful missionary son filled the afternoon.

In the early evening the house was filled with the fresh aroma of oatmeal chocolate chip cookies made by Cayden and Bo.

And finally, in the evening I was treated to an amazing simmering pot of fresh chicken and dumplings.


I think that I will go ahead and keep my job as being a mom!

Ah, It's Great to Be Able to Steal Pictures!



Thanks Carrie! This makes it almost feel like I was there! Even though I am actually glad that I didn't have to drive 14 hours! :)

Bo said that he had suggested that they take this picture in front of the scoreboard. However, no one really wanted to remember the 1-8 that was still flashing up there! We'll just pretend that it was a closely fought game.

Nightly Hairdos



Mariah is going crazy about creating hairdos. So every single night I get to sit for at least an hour while we watch Wife Swap, and she creates new fashion do's on me. I love it! She thought this lastest style was pretty awesome, so we took pictures!

What a Sweet "Thank You"


Blakeley came to our house Sunday afternoon and brought Bo the warmest, most cozy blanket you can imagine. It was her "thanks" to him for being such a great friend and for taking her to two dances :)
