Happy Birthday Taylor!

Yesterday Taylor turned nine! Wow, where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday she was born. She is such a special girl and Jon and I are so blessed to have her. We often wonder how we lucked up with such a sweet child. She has a heart of gold which shines through every day of her life! Happy Birthday Taylor we love you!

Have a great week!

Game Ball

Talyor had an awesome softball game last night! One that kept us on the edge of our seats! First of all she was playing her best friend's team. Given Taylor's personality, you know that is difficult! This is what it came down to....Taylor's team down by one...last inning...two strikes...a runner on 1st and a runner on 2nd.....Taylor up to bat....she hits it brings both girls home and wins the game by one run!!!! yayyyyyy...She got game ball (a ball awarded to the girl with the best game) but most importantly walked off the field with a HUGE smile on her face!

Making Up For Lost Time!

I admit, I have been really slack at blogging. We have been so busy I have not even taken the time to sit down and blog. I promise I will get better! Needless to say the girls have had a lot of fun things going on that I would like to talk about.

First, I must start out by bragging on Taylor. This past week she got her first report card this year as a third grader. Much to our surprise she brought home straight A's. (Well I guess we weren't too surprised...she takes after her mother.. haha)This is the first year they really get letter grades and follow a traditional grading scale. We are so very proud of her!

The girls also had the opportunity of going to Disney on ice this past weekend. They had a blast! That is all they have talked about this week. Nana and Papa got them tickets and took them. Madison and Ashley enjoyed dressing up in their favorite princess dress. Taylor went to a birthday party at Libby Lou earlier that day. There she got her hair fixed and LOTS of makeup! So all three were dressed up and ready to go! I forgot it was on ice....and didn't pack coats...so I think they froze for most of the show. Brrrr~ Anyways, they had a great time!
