I Wanted to Join the Fun

Sour Faces

Brooke by far makes the funniest faces while eating


Katie's sour face. She learned about her senses at preschool and practiced her sour face for when she tasted a lemon.



McKenna trying to make a sour face, but she's nothing but sweet!

Happy Birthday

Yesterday was a great birthday.
- We had donuts for breakfast
- I enjoyed a quiet morning (best birthday present ever!) while Katie was at preschool and McKenna was at playgroup
- The girls cleaned up the playroom WITHOUT ME ASKING
- we went to two of Dave's flag football games and enjoyed the beautiful weather
- I received lots of phonecalls, cards, texts, facebook messages, and more to make me feel very special.
- Dave brought home P.F. Chang's for dinner (YUM!) and a Great Wall of Chocolate. Actually two of them - 0ne for the family, and one for me.

Katie took this picture of me blowing out the candles.
She's a good little photographer!


Me & the girls trying to make "26"


And my birthday present!
A ceiling fan for the kitchen!
Actually, Dave said the present was him putting in the fan.

And here are the Jensen girls
singing their rendition of "Happy Birthday"
conducted by our very own, Brookie Cookie:

I am the luckiest Mom.

And thanks everyone for the sweet birthday wishes!

Oh...and if you're in need of a good laugh, go here.

First Days

Last week school started around here.
Oh how I love fall.
I love the schedule and the structure.
They make this Mom very happy :)

Katie loves preschool.
This is her second year and she's excited to be back.
We picked sunflowers for her teacher on the way there.


Once a week while Katie's at preschool, McKenna goes to playgroup.
She loves it. It makes her (and mom) feel like she's all grown up.


And while the older two are away, I get some one-on-one time with this little angel.

We usually just hang around :)
