FRIENDS

Jaydn got to enjoy a very special treat this weekend. Her best friend(from Kansas :)), Sienna, came down with her mom on Friday night and stayed with us until Saturday evening. Jaydn and Sienna hadn't seen each other in a while so it was nice for them to get together and play. When they got to our house Jaydn went flying out the door and ran to give Sienna a hug, it was so cute. They had a grea time playing together. When Sienna and Shannon had to leave, both Sienna and Jaydn were crying. I'm so thankful that they still live close enough that we can go visit from time to time.





Saturday was Apple Days. It's a big festival thing that Fort Riley does every year. They have a petting zoo, bouncy's, food, music, and of course Apple Pie. I got up early that morning and took the girls to Apple Days. Sienna won this sign that says "Support Our Troops". So as we are walking across the field, Jaydn is holding it up yelling, "Bring our daddies home safe". It was sad and cute all at the same time!

Jaydn was so excited to see the ducklings. When she saw there was a petting zoo, she immediately asked if there were duckings. So we found them in this cage adn i wanted to get a picture of her with them. She didn't want to get close because she was afraid that they would peck her. She is about as fond of birds as her mommy is.


jaydn and sienna petting a calf. I told jaydn that it was a baby cow and her reply, "you mean calf mom"..of course jaydn. they also got to feed a baby goat it's bottle but jaydn insisted on sitting on my lap so i couldn't get a picture of her.

SUNFLOWERs!!

Jaydn and I decided to go out today and take some pictures. I really want to find a patch of HUGE sunflowers, but I have to go west for that. Maybe next weekend! My good camera wasn't working so I used this one but was able to still capture some good pictures. Jaydn wasn't cooperating very well either..dang it.





If you could see from the waist down, you would see that she has her hand on her hip. She wanted to pose...I wanted her to be 'normal'.
