HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY SWEET LITTLE JAKE! (not so little anymore)

Yesterday was Jakelyne's birthday.  We celebrated it with Honey, Bob Bo, and Grandpa on Thanksgiving.  Then we took her laser tagging with some of her friends on Saturday and then celebrated it again.  I can't believe how fast she is growing up.  It makes me sad to see how fast time goes.

She said that it was her worsed birthday ever.  We had to take her to the hospital for X-rays last night because last Sunday she was kicked by her horse.  She was having alot of pain, but she is going to be okay.  It will just take some time to heal.

Her Grandma Pam had a darling cake made for her for her birthday.  She just loved it and so did all of her friends.  Well I think that sums it all up for now.  More to come soon.  I hope all had a very safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving.

Princesses on Ice

Just Brinley and I went to see Disney's Pricesses on Ice.  I never thought something like that could be so much fun.  She wanted to wear her halloween costume, which she was a Princess of course.  She was not the only one.  I think 90% of the little girls there all dressed up as Princesses also.  She loved it. It was fun just to have Mom and Brin day.

Las Vegas

The first weekend in November we went to Las Vegas for a vaulting competition for Presley.  It was her first one and she actually did very well.  I think if she would have smiled more instead of being so serious she would have done better.  But we are very proud of her.  She got 2-5th places 1-4th and 1- 3rd place.  It was fun.  Mom and Dad went down with us.  Brinley thought it was awsome with all the lights.

New Family Member

We saddley lost Marlyne and Gus a few weeks ago.  It has been very hard for all of us and especailly for Jakelyne.  They were part of the family.  To help heal our loss Jakelyne got a new puppy for her birthday just a little early.  She is a Astrailian Shepherd and her name is Jade.  Steve finally got his Jade.  I think he has tried to name everything from the kids to the pets Jade, so now he has his Jade.  The girls are excited to do agility with her when she get a little older.  Right now Marley is the star jumper in the family.  Jade should come along just fine.  Marley gets a bath weekly.  It is so funny how she looks like a little powder puff then when wet looks like a drowned rat.  Dogs just add something special to ones life.

Halloween

Halloween came so fast and it was a lot of fun.  All three girls dressed up. Jake was a "Flower Child", Presley was a "Countess" and our sweet little Brin was a Princess, oh I can't forget that Steve was her King! We went trick or treating with Steve's sister and her boys.  We really have made it a tradition and the kids have great fun.

It's been a While!

Well, since it has been a while this blog entry might be longer then usual.  Since the last entry we have added another member to the family, lost two others,  had a birthday, went to Las Vegas for a valting competition and well I think that is about it.
