Jenna's Pillow

I finished Jenna's pillow today. It is so cute. She loves it! She carried it around with her all day. She even took it in the car when we went to Wal-Mart. She even posed for pictures with her pillow.

A Busy Saturday

Our Saturday was super fun. Jaron had a soccer game and their team won again! This time the score was 4-1! He is on a great team. After soccer, we came home and had some lunch and rested for a little bit, then we took the kids to the pond and went fishing. The best part about fishing is stopping at the little store and getting snacks. The kids each pick out their own drink and then whatever they want to eat. Jenna picked a ring pop. I loved those when I was a little girl. I would always get them whenever my parents let me get candy. Jaron got some sour straw candy. He didn't even eat it. Silly boy. The only fish to be caught was a catfish by our little miss Jenna. She reeled it all the way in by herself! She got a little creeped out as soon as she saw it. I can't blame her, catfish are really ugly.


Saturday morning, my friend Jessica brought a treat over for Jaron and Jenna. It was a dessert in a bucket with crushed up oreo's and gummy worms. So cute! Jaron and Jenna loved it. I just let them get a couple of spoons and dig in! They thought it was really fun and delicious! Thanks Jessica!

Jaron's Pillow

Yesterday, I finished another sewing project. I made Jaron a pillow with his name on it. I had so much fun making it. Jaron helped pick out the fabric for it, but he had no idea I was working on it. I finished it just before he got home from school. I laid it on his bed with the rest of his pillows. He was really happy about it. He carried it around with him and was laying with it the rest of the day. It makes me so happy that he loves it so much. I love it, too. I think it turned out really well. I'll be starting Jenna's very soon. She was upset with me that I didn't start hers as soon as Jaron's was finished.




Jaron also got his report card yesterday. It is awesome. His grades were mostly 4's. (That's the highest grade!) We are so proud of him. We took Jaron and Jenna out for frozen yogurt to celebrate! Today we are getting ready for another soccer game. It is supposed to be a beautiful day. Have a great weekend!

Dragonflies Win!!

That is Jaron's soccer team. They had their first game on Saturday morning. His team won 5-2! It was so much fun and pretty exciting seeing Jaron out there playing a team sport. Here are some pictures!



We were able to finish cleaning out our garage this weekend, too. It is so nice. I was able to park the car in it today! It is so clean! We got rid of a bunch of junk and trash. It feels so good to have that big of a job finished. Next up, Jenna's room!

Soccer Practice

Wow! I can't believe it has been over a month since I updated our blog. So sorry. We have been pretty busy. It has been amazing having Jacob home. He will be home for another 5 weeks or so. I love every minute of it. We are all totally inseparable right now. It is hard for us to do anything without the other. Anyway, I will try to do better at updating, but I'm not making any promises. At least not until Jacob goes back to work.

Jaron had his first soccer practice yesterday. It was really cute to see the young kids running around. Jaron did pretty well. They have their first game on Saturday so that should be interesting. Here are a few pictures from practice and I'll throw in a couple of Jenna, too!

We have a super busy weekend ahead of us. We are renting a dumpster so we can clean out the garage. We are also re-doing Jenna's room. She is getting a twin bed and new dresser and we are going to re-paint. I will definitely share pictures when we are done. It will be a super girly big girl room. I am really excited about it and a little jealous.
