Jessica's Birthday


Well our baby girl turned 6 years old on Saturday the 20th. BOO HOO! I told her we were going to just skip right over Saturday so she would stay 5 years old for another year. WELLLL she didn't take to kindly to that one. She is to smart for me.

Last year on this date it was VERY hot and so I thought we would have a party at a friends pool..PERFECT. BUT this past Saturday it was in the 70s.



But the children had a great time...not even phased by the cold water. I attempted to go in BUT I wasn't that crazy. Mark went in though and the rest of the parents watched and talked. We even had a pinata and a sandcastle cake.(see above) They liked that one.
Jessica and her best friend Farah enjoyed a float around the pool on the dragon or is it a seahorse.


Here is the birthday girl on her special day. After the party we had Farah over for a few hours and then went to Jessica's choice for restaurants for dinner. Went to TACO BELL. I have to say she knows whats inexpensive, good for her. THEN she got a buildabear gift card from Grammie and Poppie so we took a trip there and she got a new dog for her collection. It was a memorable time. She was so happy.
It was a great day....God blessed us with nice weather...it wasn't too hot but still enjoyable. At times the sun would shine down on us but then a cool breeze would come. So it was perfect and fun to visit. Very relaxing.
Thank you to my friend Beverly who suggested and let us use her Grandparents in ground pool and Thanks to her grandparents. ALSO to Beverly for the use of the cake pan and all the other goodies. She saved us some time and money. You are the best and I appreciate you so much.
God Bless to all,
Jen and Family
