8 Years later...

8 years ago I was a young single mom who decided with her new boyfriend it was time to introduce each other to our 2 year olds. 
We planned a play date to planet kid, and the rest is well... history!
 From the 1st day they met he has been so good to her, and 8 years later she is such a daddy's girl!
 From the day I met Kade I knew I would always love him as my own, and from the day he met his sister they have been such good friends!
 A lot has changed! Like this smile has joined our family!
 Kade is still the leader and fun finder!
 But Jenna who use to be afraid of her own shadow (not even kidding)is now such a fearless fun spirit!
They all love each other so much like there was never a time we didn't all belong together!
 And I am so glad that we are a family, and I am the mom of 3!
 8 Years later, and I could not have imagined 
life would be this great!

Date night with our big kids

It's that such adorable time again for Michael to take his girl to the Daddy Daughter Dance 
So I decided it would be a perfect time for Kade and I to have a date too!
Boys need spoiled just as much as girls, so he got a candy bouquet when Jenna got her flowers and favorite snack!
I can not believe how grown up these two are!
My handsome young man
and stunning little lady

Mike took Jenna to have sushi (her new favorite dinner)
And I took Kade to his favorite restaurant 
though his favorite part is not the food, but the tropical drinks :)
Then while Mike and Jenna were dancing the night away
 Kade kicked my butt at airhocky, and we saw the movie Sing

Our Princess Unicorn turned 9

Daddy's Girl is growing way too fast!
But she still would rather spend her time with him over anyone else which makes my heart so happy!
Daddy woke up early to make his girl a 9 shaped pancake, and her favorite eggs!
We filled the house with balloons that had notes to her, and even decorated the car and her bathroom mirror :)
That afternoon Dad went to lunch at her school, played with her and her friends at recess, and brought her class birthday snacks! 
After school we took the kids to get pumpkins at a local patch.
Then my family came over for dinner and carving fun!
 James thought the pumpkin guts were amazing!
The older kids not so much ;)
Even the newlyweds made it which made Jenna feel super special!
Seeing Jenna doesn't like cake much she wanted pumpkin cookies with her presents!
 The next night Daddy's future WNBA Rock star had her 1st Basketball practice
James had his 1st flying lesson ;) 
 Thursday Night was her school carnival 
I was helping run things, so she spent the evening with dad and her girlfriends. 
After her 1st game on Saturday we threw her a 
Costume Party
with all of her closest friends :)
 She didn't want a cake, so she had Vampire Doughnuts instead ;)
 The Prizes for Best, scariest, and cutest costumes 
And candy popcorn hands for favors!
 The 1st part of the party we had a Magician who had the kids laughing, and totally impressed!
Then he made them all balloon surprises ;)
 Everyone even daddy dressed for her party hahaha
Then we had a Jennabelle Carnival!
We had a pumpkin ring toss, Ghost bowling, Spider darts, and goblin eyeball throw for the kids to earn tickets for fun prizes!
(Thanks to Aunt Eva, Uncle Dave, Uncle Joshy, Auntie Grace, and Grandma April for running the games)
 The all time favorite fame was Bobbing for Apples much to my surprise!
All of the kids wanted to get an apple and we ended up going through 2 bags of them!
 Then while Jenna opened her gifts her friends ate their apples and doughnuts!
Then ran the sugar off in the back yard until their parents picked them up!
That night we had Jenna's favorite dinner while we had family movie night!
Then Sunday after church Grandma and Mandi brought lunch and presents for one last party!
Then the kids spent hours in the backyard with dad playing basketball :)
Which is how Jennabelle would spend every day if you let her pick!
I am so thankful for this sweet, fun, loving girl that God has blessed Michael and I with!
And thankful to everyone who helped us celebrate her birthday "week"!
