Busy Week

Life just flies right by, doesn't it? This week was so busy! Most things that happened I can't even remember now, but here are some of the highlights. We'll start on Saturday. Nana and Granddad came by with Bella, their new puppy, which was of course a huge hit! My camera had a moment on that day, so I just have a small blurry shot of the introduction.

Tony and I went to Luigi's Saturday for a special sending off lunch for our friend Gabe. He is swimming this week in Omaha, in the Olympic Trials. Again, regrettably, I didn't have my camera and actually have no pics of the fun lunch we shared with our friends. However, over at Staci's blog, there are a few... along with updates from the trials. Then, Saturday evening was Miss Abigail's 2nd birthday party. The kids had so much fun. Probably too much fun, as we had to cut the night short because Jaden was getting quite out of control.

Sunday was, as I remember, very restful. Aubrey had a cold, so we stayed home from church. Tony took Jaden to the Baptism/Potluck on Sunday afternoon and watched our dear friend Kristin, among others in our church family, get baptised. They had a wonderful time. Monday, I don't even remember. Tuesday morning, Tony left for Omaha! He went with our friends Nick, John and Kristin to encourage and cheer Gabe on as he competes. They have been having a wonderful time! I went over to Jen's (the other half of Nick, who is off with Tony) today for a play date, which of course I forgot to take my camera to. I guess I should just be thankful I remembered all of my kids! We had a blast with them. I got home today, watched Gabe qualify for the finals tomorrow, and went to church. Last but not least, I took this evening to spend some special time with Jaden. Since Baylee is with Grandma, we had a special "Mommy and Jaden" night. On our way home from church, we got some ice cream and watched cartoons until he couldn't take it anymore.
