September 2010

2010-10-04T01:14:00.006-05:00

Okay, so maybe this will be a month in review blog....

Jade lost 2 teeth.

She also attended a cheerleading camp and got to perform at a football game.

But the highlight of the month and maybe of my life is that she was baptized this month. I'm so glad she has taken this step in her relationship with Jesus.

Last week of August

2010-10-04T01:07:00.003-05:00

Jade started a new school and horseback riding lessons. She loves both!

Week of August 22nd, 2010

2010-08-29T17:05:00.003-05:00

Sunday, we went to a shower for Myah's mom, Courtney. Baby Romalee is due September 19th, but Courtney is ready for her to come any day. It was quite a lovely shower and Jaden collected these flowers off the tables and made a bouquet. Mommy got her official Steak-n-Shake apron this week, and Jaden wore it to wait on us every chance she got. She was pretty worn out from her first full week of school, but she did well and seems to like it. On Saturday, Jaden had her first official horseback riding lesson. It was a little overwhelming for her to learn all the information that comes with preparing her horse for a ride, but she wants to go back next week so that's a good sign.

Week of August 15th, 2010

2010-08-23T10:30:00.004-05:00

Last week, Jaden got her hair cut in preparation for school to start. The first few days of school were a success. Jaden has a lovely teacher, and some of her best friends are in her class. The week ended with my first day of training at Steak-n-Shake. Jaden wanted to dress like mommy at her new job, so I bought her a shirt. She was playing "waitress" all day.

Before haircut

A Change

2010-08-16T14:14:00.008-05:00

Things have kind of gotten hectic lately, and I haven't had any time to digiscrap.

That being said, I'm going to mix it up a little. Instead of posting layouts from a year ago, I'm going to start doing a week in review type thing. So here are some pics of Jaden from August.

On the 5th, she was in the Greenfield Triennial Homecoming parade.

On the 8th, she had a VBS program at our church.

On the 11th, Jaden went to the Science Center with Grandma Lesta, mommy, Jarrett, and Aunt Lindsay.

On Friday the 13th, she had a back-to-school swim party with her friends. Then we celebrated Kristi Loew's wedding reception on Saturday night. She danced up a storm.

So as we get ready for school to start, it's been a pretty good month already.

Pool Fun with Daddy!

Shabby Princess Cheers Me Up

2009-08-01T09:18:00.002-05:00

Last week, my great aunt and Jason's grandpa passed away. I haven't had much time to be online and keep up with friends, much less do any scrapping. But today I realized it was the first day of August and here I am with no cute desktop. So I went to the site where I always know I will be able to find adorable desktop wallpaper, the Shabby Princess. A little happiness has been added to my day. Thanks Shabby Princess!
