Jaiden eyes her cake

Jaiden is no longer a “baby”. We celebrated her first birthday party today! This was actually her second party … my family came over for cake when we were down at grandma and grandpa’s house for a bit of early festivities … and of course, presents.

Today was more of the “friends and neighbors” party. Most of mommy’s friends, and quite a few kids from the neighborhood came to our house, for hot dogs, meatballs, potato salad, and cake. Fun was had by all … video games, conversation, and lots of toys.

Of course both mommy and daddy took some pictures.

Here are some pictures daddy took: (I’m sure mommy will add a few more later).

mommy bought a big banner for the front yard

Mmmm I like hot dogs

I got my own cupcake!

ok, this could have worked better

Florida Vacation

Posted by mommy in 11 months Aug 22nd, 2009 | No Comments

Jaiden and I took a mini vacation to Florida this summer.This is where her grandparents live which they have only seen chubbs in pictures and Todd was also in Florida for training which was 3 hours away from his parents.We had a great time with the grandparents,cousins,aunt,uncles and Todd was able to bring down his other kids from NC.We were only there for 2 weeks because I had to get back home so I could do the long 3 hour drive to Dallas and get my kids from the airport because they were in Hawaii visiting their dad.My Morris family will be missed but we will see them again for christmas.
