Jenna's Birthday Celebration

We celebrated Jenna's birthday by going to a Drumline Show in North St. Paul, and then pigging out on lots of great food at Corey and Heidi's house. Jenna, Corey, and Heidi were reliving their high school days as we watched all the schools perform. It was a bit more distracting than in the "olden days" due to the presence of a 2-year old and a 6-year old. Phebe seemed to enjoy most of the show, but Maddox's attention span was pretty short! M&M's helped for awhile, and then Andy took them both out to run around a bit. Thanks, Andy!

I can't believe Jenna is actually 26. It seems like yesterday that she was born!


She decided we should have all her favorite appetizers, and just skip the main course. These plates were pretty empty by the time we finished.

Then, to top off all the munchies, we had DQ cake, her all-time favorite.

Heidi realized she had a 2 and a 6 left over from Maddox's and Phebe's party back in October. Hmmmm.... put them together and what do you get??

Phebe took this one - not too bad, Phebes!

What's the matter, Jenna? Isn't that piece big enough for you, or do you want all the roses?



Jenna got some great clothes for presents, and also an I-pod shuffle from Andy.

The guys actually finished off the rest of that cake, although they saved a skinny piece for Maddox, who slept through the whole event.

Our next birthday is Corey's - he'll be 30 in June! YIKES, again!

Happy Birthday, Jenna!

Yikes! Our baby turns 26 on Sunday!

We're so proud of you! Happy Birthday!
We're celebrating on Saturday by going to a....Drumline Show! It should be fun to see how Maddox and Phebe like all the noise and action! Pictures soon!

Littlest Pet Shop

Phebe's favorite activity these days is playing with her Littlest Pet Shop figures. Her collection has grown to more than 20, and she has big plans to get lots more. We'll see...
She spends lots of time setting them up in the dollhouse, and then making up stories for them. See them peeking through the windows?

There they all are! Actually, 5 are missing from this picture because they somehow wandered into Phebe's pocket and made it to school last week. They ended up spending a lonely weekend on her teacher's desk. Hmmmmm....


Maddox has fun with them, too!


Aren't they the cutest?
