But as for life after reality TV, the girls are loving being teenagers—who sometimes just get to walk red carpets!

“It was a lot of fun,” Paige told OKMagazine.com of the HALO Awards. “It was different than any other award show we’ve ever been to. There were a lot of different activities to do and we were actually interacting with everyone and the fans.”

Since leaving the Lifetime reality series last year, Kelly said she’s enjoying “being a stay-at-home mom,” and watching her children grow up doing “normal things.”
