Week in Review #6

We made another blog this week-its getting addicting, (ha ha). This one was for Kelsey for her big Beauty Product Drive: Shop in the Name of Love. She's having a big kickoff event Feb 27 and hopefully the media will be there to get some donations rolling in. Check out her blog: www.shopinthenameoflove.blogspot.com (Whew! that's a long one!) I'm quite thrilled that I made the blog all by myself, but now our family blog features Kelsey's picture. Anyone out there know how to keep them separate??

This week was spent mostly getting Kelsey ready for her service drive. Although she didn't get any corporate donations for her trip, she is still going ahead with the service drive. It's been fun to put this together because its something she really wants to do. Fun times this week as we gather supplies and contact the media.

We celebrated Breanna's 10th birthday last week. My baby girl is growing up right before my eyes. She just got her ears pierced too and can't wait to wear sparkly earrings like her sisters. Her birthday was quite an event to put on since it fell on a Wednesday. I hurried home from school and we dashed out the door to eat at In-and Out Burgers. Then we dashed home to frost and eat the cake, and open presents. Then dashed back out the door to attend a school social at my school. Then dashed home to get the girls to Young Womens. Then crashed into bed. She had a birthday party later that week with her friends. Before we know it she will be dashing out the door with the other girls to go to Young Womens.

Now Jayden is counting down until his birthday in May. Too bad he still has to wait for Carissa's and Kevin's too. His eyes lit up when he realized that next year (2011) he will be old enough to get baptized and go to Cub Scouts. He is already thinking up designs for his Pinewood Derby car. He and I went to a Mother Son activity at the Riparian Preserve Water Ranch. It was a nice flat hike around a lake with other moms and sons in the ward. The sun was just setting and it was fun for him to have boys around to run and shout and kick up the gravel with. He loved peeking in the observatory and seeing Mars through the telescope. So now his big fascination is space and asteroids. At the moment he wants to be a pilot and a spaceman.
