Run Jensen Run!

Jensen likes basketball and he really loves the running part so we signed him up for track through the YMCA. He has had 2 meets so far and he seems to enjoy it even though he comes in almost last. He did very well at the softball throw and placed 4th out of 27 kids. We should have known he'd be good at that since he has been chunking everything since he was 9 months old! He's taller than the other kids and we know he can be faster but he gets so caught up in the fun of running he falls behind. He has a good coach though and is improving after two practices. They do some really fun running games during practice and he loves it

At his meet last weekend, Jensen had Grandma and Grandpa, Mimi and our old neighbors there to watch. Mimi took some great pictures of him doing the long jump

He has one more track meet then he starts basketball in the summer again.

Lady Gaga

My friend Crystal and I got tickets to go see Lady Gaga in concert in Tulsa on April 4, 2011. We really like her music even though she is very strange. We drove up there and ate dinner at Outback which was interesting because we are both on strict diets. We did OK though and it was yummy. We got to the arena early and couldn't believe all the people in elaborate costumes. We had fun going around taking pictures of freaky people. I love seeing costumes on Halloween so this was almost as good! The concert was great too and she puts on a good show with a positive message Waiting to go insideMe and Crystal "Pete" waiting for an hour for Lady Gaga to come on after the lame opening act One of the craziest costumes!

We drove on this street and surprisingly there was no traffic on it!

These little girls were really cute and I loved the creativity.We were surprised by the number of young kids there, even some parents with toddlers.....um not appropriate!

There were so many large girls with big tutus on we wondered if Hobby Lobby was completely out of tulle :)

March Random

I just love Jorden in these overalls

Jensen was learning his address and had to make a model of his house out of recycled items. I had a hard time with it because I wanted to make it spectacular and realistic but have limited skills and it had to look like a 5yr old did it. It turned out pretty cute though. Jensen helped me glue and tape it all together and my mom came up with the idea of how to do the porch Does it look like our house? Jensen wanted to use differnt colors so that was creative.

Kim and Ellie Jade

My friend Kim lives in Arizona and she and her baby girl Ellie came to visit for a week. We enjoyed going to the park to play and having girl time after the kids went to bed Jorden being big on the slide

Spring Break was a whirlwind of activities. Mon- Chuck E. Cheese, Tues- Jump Zone, Wed-skating, Thurs- Orr Farm and Fri-Zoo. I was really worn out after all that but we enjoyed Jensen's week off from schoolSpeeding on the pedal car

We brought this toy in from the garage and Jorden is enjoying it. Jensen loved it when he was little then we had it in storage for 2yrs. When we got it out, he kept asking over and over where the BIG blue car was and was upset and confused when we told him this was it. He didn't understand that he had grown! Daisies Jenna and Jillian

Jenna and Jillian joined the Girl Scouts and started out as Daisies. They didn't have a leader so Jamie had to volunteer and they are having fun with it.
