Crazy Week






Like all weeks at the Jessie House, it has been a crazy one.

Saturday 2/21: We attended a 4th birthday celebration for a friend, Tyler at Chuck E. Cheese. T and C had a blast. We have 2 more birthday parties to attend this weekend (Skate Town and Pump It Up Bounce House).

Tuesday: 2/24 Crazy Sock Day at Preschool, Taylor had ballet after school, and I went to an Adult Hip Hop Dance class at 8. Adam was working late as it is his busy season and so I met him at a gas station to hand off the kids on my way to dance class. I am completely sore and had a hard time getting out of bed this morning. I haven't danced like that since my younger days for sure. I have never felt old UNTIL this morning. It was a blast and of course I enjoyed hanging out with my dear friend, Hayley.

Wednesday: 2/25 Favorite Board Game Day at Preschool, Tacky Night at Awana Cubbies, Ate dinner at my Memaw's (a Wednesday tradition).

Thursday: 2/26 Taylor has ballet again this week because of a snow day that was missed, Uncle Blake is coming down. Taylor and Carson have been so excited about Uncle Blake visiting for about a week now. They have colored him many pictures and even learned how to write his name on them. They have hid the pictures under Uncle Blake's pillow. They are so funny. Carson has made many plans with The Funny Man (as he calls him). Carson had a hard time going to bed tomorrow because he is just sooooo excited that Uncle Blake will be here tomorrow to play funny basketball (a game that Adam has made up...it is Carson's favorite game that is played every night.)

Friday: 2/27 Taylor and Carson are hanging out with Uncle Blake all day. They have suggestions of what we are going to do, but we will have to wait and see what the weather is going to do. And then of course we are all going to Skate Town for Maddie's birthday party. Hayley has rented out the entire place, so we are all going skating. I can't wait. I haven't done this in many years, but I use to love to skate. My only hope is that my soreness from the Hip Hop class goes away before then.

Saturday: 2/28 We are going to Lilly Kate's birthday party at Pump It Up Bounce House. Taylor and Carson love bounce houses. They are so excited. It is a great way to end this crazy week. Next week looks just as crazy!!!!! But that is what makes it so great.....:o) I love my family and love spending time with them.

Valentines Day 2009

Events of Valentines
1) Taylor and Carson enjoyed making Valentine cards for their preschool Valentine party on Friday.
2) T and C kicked off Valentines Day by making heart shaped muffins for all to enjoy.
3) Adam picked up 4 lower level tickets for the UT vs Vandy basketball game which we all enjoyed.
4) We decided since the basketball game went into the evening, then we wanted to have a quite steak dinner at home after the kids went to bed at 7pm (they didn't have a nap). It was simple yet pleasant not as elaborate as Valentines in the past (before children of course), but a very enjoyable Valentines spent with my family. I wouldn't change it for the world!

Snow Day

The kids had a great time playing in the snow. We are to go sledding if it continues to snow, but we will see. Adam had a great time making snow balls and hitting me with them.

Happy Birthday Hayley!



One of my dear friends is having a birthday this week, and I wanted to give a shout out to her. Hayley is a wonderful person whom I love spending time with. Hayley is my Splash Country buddy during the summer. We hang out by The Cascades and let Maddie take care of Taylor and Carson. :o) Taylor and Carson enjoy Hayley and Maddie and we love to all hang out together. We try to go to dinner once a month and it seems we always make time for shopping too! Happy Birthday Hayley! Thanks for all the memories.
