I helped celebrate this darling 10 year old redhead's big day after she had enjoyed a sleepover at her home with some of her friends. You should have seen the size of pieces she cut from her birthday cake. I even tried a small piece w/o frosting. Congrats gal, you're into the two digits now.
Taryn competed in the AZ Irish Lass teen competition and I was sooooo proud of her that my buttons were busting.
Her dancing was supurb and I'm not at all biased, her onstage interview was excellant as she was very composed for a 13 year old. We were hoping for a big upset, but this was her first year in this comp and an "old" 17 year old won it.
We heard later that the scores were very close and one judge didn't deduct any point from her scores.

My favorite answer was when judge asked her where her favorite place was to go. I choked up when she said "to see my grandma in Utah and to see her fresh green grass and delicious strawberries".
(I'd given her double points for that answer). I'm so proud of the way she represented the Howells family as well as her Irish ancestors (on Sunshine's side) and I hope you all are too. Aunt Reba told her to "break a leg". Congrats and Good Going!!!!!
Weight is still at 91.0
