They went straight to the bath after this.

Incredible Pizza!

For family night we went to incredible pizza. The girls had a blast playing games, ridding the rides and turning in the tickets for cool toys.

We won a $5.oo game card and 400 tickets on the wheel.

First Day of Preschool!

Today is Saige's first day of 3k preschool. She was so excited last night she had a hard time going to sleep. She is going Monday, Wednesday, Friday from 9:30AM-2:30PM(Savannah and I will miss her). She has been talking about going to school for so long and the day is finally here!

Catch Up!

Last Tuesday after enrichment a few girls went to Cold Stone for some delicious ice cream.

The weather has been beautiful here in Tennessee so we went to the park Wednesday afternoon. Can't beat the 74 degree weather in August.

Then came the rain on Friday and Saige had a blast playing in it.

Saige has been watching the Olympic gymnastics and has been dancing around the house. She asked me to put this outfit on her size 12-18 months. I told her it would be too small on her and show her stomach and she said Oh come on mom cheerleaders show their bellies.

Savannah's New Trick

Christine came over yesterday and we were talking in the living room on the couch when all of the sudden Savannah jumped off the couch on to the floor and landed on her bum. I couldn't help but laugh even though it hurt her. A few seconds later she did it again. Crazy girl! After the third time I put a pillow on the floor so she wouldn't hurt herself any more. I don't know what gave her the idea because she has never done that before. Later when Jarom came home I told him what she did and she was happy to show him, so here is a video of her jumping off the couch.

Happy Anniversary Jarom!

Sorry Long post about how we met, if interested keep reading.

It is hard to believe that 6 years ago today the dream of marring my best friend would come true. Happy Anniversary Jarom! I Love You.
Jarom and I were introduced by my best friend at the time Terese and his former girl friend Terese. Terese and I were at church(MCC 1st ward) and she needed a blessing, so she asked Jarom(newly home from his mission). We went into a quiet room and Jarom gave her the blessing. Then they started talking about old friends and Jarom's ex girlfriend that didn't wait for him. I just sat there and listened to them talk. I was very interested in what they were saying even though I didn't know who they were talking about. Something about Jarom caught my eye that day and I couldn't get him out of my mind. Only one problem I was engaged to someone else. Jarom felt it too and asked Terese about me, but she told him to forget about it because I was taken. As I got to know Jarom more at FHE and church I realized he was way better for me and brought out a whole other side of me that I liked. I was very comfortable around him, he made me laugh and act goofy. After about three months I broke off the engagement to James because I knew he wasn't THE ONE. Only I was too late. Jarom had a girl friend by then, So We became best friends. We hung out as friends for a year. He did take me on a date horse back ridding in January 2001 when his girlfriend was out of town. We were together all of the time people kept asking us if we were dating and If I was really his girlfriend. He would say no I have a girlfriend named Julie (that is right she had my name)It just wasn't me. Finally she left town to study abroad, so they broke up. Of course I was there for him when she left.

Our first date September 25,2001 we taught swing dance to the young men and women in the Fairfield ward. Then we went to the movies to see The Other's. When he dropped me off at my house he kissed me right outside my front door. I didn't expect it because we always hung out, but he never kissed me. That meant we were a couple.

Tune in next year for our engagement story...

G.N.O. Lazar Tag!

For Girls Night Out we ate dinner at Mc Alisters then played Lazar Tag. It was so much fun! I just got home and am still wired (I drank 2 cokes) and am not ready for bed, so I thought I would go ahead and post.
Here is part of the group before we played.
Christine, Joleen, Me ,Susan, Valorie, Catherine, and Lindsey.
Game on ladies!
We all had mad skills.

Not to brag or anything, but the team I was on(we switched people every game) won 3 out of 4 games.
Lindsey hitting the big point target.
Karen taking me down.
Valorie getting shot from behind and doesn't even know it.
Joleen guarding the base.

I'm just having a great time.
Catherine is serious.
Susan hiding just waiting for someone to shoot.
I'm waiting for the next victim.
I don't know who that is, great job hiding. Valorie took some pictures of herself with the camera, so I decided I should show off one.
After Lazar Tag we went to Shake N Steak to cool down with some root beer floats and shakes.
Joleen drinking her cottage cheese......
Catherine grossing out over Joleen drinking her cottage cheese.
We had such a great time. Who knew Lazar tag could be so fun. A SPECIAL THANKS to Karen for picking up the tab at Steak N Shake.
