Happy Birthday Jayden

Today our preemie girl turned 12. I can remember every detail from the day Jayden was born. We have enjoyed the past 12 years of her life. She is an amazing little girl that is so exceptional. She is kind and tender hearted, responsible, mature, intelligent, and we love her dearly.

After the first night stay in the hotel, today we split up, the boys went to the science center with Mark and the girls went to the mall with me. From trying on spike heel shoes to buying smelly lotions, the girls enjoyed their day. We roamed the mall, had lunch at the food court, and tried on dresses. They were most interested in the lotions from bath and body works. The boys had a great time too building rockets and watching the IMAX movie about an orphaned elephant. Luke got to be one of the big boys today. Later we made a stop at the arcade. With one quarter, Luke hit the jackpot on his game and out rolled 150 tickets. We ended the day with dinner out, cupcakes, and more swimming. What a great way to celebrate the kids' birthdays.

Volleyball

Jake went with Karen after school and to the field. My mom, Luke and I went to Jayden’s Volleyball game in Coon Rapids. They played 4 games all losses. They were not having a good serving night and that really hurt them. Still enjoy watching them learn.

Treasures

In the morning we took 3 of our 4 cats to the vet for shots. The 4 th cat decided to wander this morning missing his appointment. On our way out, we passed a rummage sale and stopped. We got some major treasures for next to nothing. The church ladies were so fascinated with Jacob's interest in old radios and televisions. They just adored him and marked the prices way down and gave him some for free. We loaded up on kids books, got some board games, and a few other treasures. Jake ended up with a mini television , an old radio and Polaroid camera. After lunch the boys went straight to the field. My friend Carolyn and her daughter Tabby came to ride horses. What started out to be a chilly day 45, turned out nice and sunny. We had coats on, but it was a great day to ride. We rode through our hay patch and along the waterway near the highway. It was a great way to spend the afternoon.

Dayton Fun Show

It has been cold and windy for the past week, highs of 45. Today the sun was shinning and it got up to 60. There was one final horse show for the season at the Dayton arena. We took Jayden and Jacob while Luke went with Grammer and Po and was supposed to come later. It was a fun show geared for practice and the kids. Jake did really well on Winnie, he rode in walk and trot, barrels, and poles. He did some loping. Jayden did pleasure, milk can, barrels, poles, and a jumping event. Her horse Tex really jumps high for the jump event. Down in the arena, there was'nt any wind and the sun came out. It made for a nice day.
