The infamous cake! Jordyn wanted a "wedding" cake.....quite the fiasco!
I can't believe my baby girl turned 7 yesterday. The time really does fly by. She is such a joy and we obviously can't imagine life without her. In her short 7 years in this world she has done so much. Most of it involves some form of athletics and wow is the girl talented! I am biased, but still! She has done: competitive cheerleading, ice skating, soccer, t-ball, gymnastics, skiing, and swimming. Yep, and she is 7! I forgot to add guitar lessons and spanish as well. I can't imagine working outside of the house because I don't know how she would get from A to B to C and back to A everyday without her mommy taxiing her around! But, I wouldn't change it for the world. Since before she was born I loved her with all that I am and we planned for me to be able to stay home with her and by the grace given to us from God I have been able to be home with both of my girls and witness every milestone of their lives and for that I will always be grateful.
When Jordyn was born we still had a 35mm camera that actually relied on film to take pictures so I can't post her baby pics, but I have plenty to show her big day of turning 7 with all of her girlfriends! She decided to have an American Idol birthday party this year. We have the American Idol Wii Game which is karaoke with the judges. The girls sang over and over and over and over! We had about 12 girls and by the end of the party I was hoping to never hear any of those songs again!!!
This year we got the girls a trampoline for their birthday and I think we have already gotten our moneys worth. They have both been outside everyday. Jordyn jumped for 4 hours the other day and could barely walk that night. I don't think her gymnastics coach was too happy with me, but she is a kid! Of course by jumping I mean she did back handsprings, back flips, front flips, and front handsprings for 4hours...duh, of course her back hurt!!!!
Grandma Nita came to Utah for the girls birthdays. It has become a tradition for her and Papa Roger to be here for the girls big days and neither one of them have missed one yet! Apparently we were busy when Papa was here because we didn't get the camera out! (bad Seanna) But, we definately remembered when Grandma Nita was here. Jordyn cried her little heart out as she watched Grandma walk into the airport. My poor girl is strong, but sensitive and doesn't do well with goodbyes!
So, here are a ton of pics from the last week....
This is what the weather did on the day of Jordyn's party!
Thank goodness Rick volunteered to help Michael, but they were both soaked!!
