Today Jayci turned 9 on the 9th-
it is her Golden Birthday!!
and Dad turned 55
Started with Breakfast in bed
We went to the Aquatic Center for a swim party
The birthday buddies
the Party People
Jayci coming down the water slide
Dad coming down the water slide
Jayci jumping off the diving board
Tyson did good to keep up with Shannon and Brenton
Shannon's favorite water spot
Then we went to Discovery Park for a picnic
We picked up some Cafe Rio (it's Taco Tuesday!)
and Jayci opened her presents
Her favorite- an MP4 player (does music & pictures & videos)
She also liked her little Smurf-
(we went and saw the new Smurf movie last night
as part of her birthday celebration).
She also got clothes and new shoes
Dad was happy to get black licorice :)
He also got a new workbench
in his garage
Aaahh, the beautiful birthday cake!
Jayci wanted a marbled 9 layer cake.
A 3 layer cake was all I could manage,
and as you can see, it soon started having problems.
And was worse by the time we got it to the park
I know you are impressed with my cake making skills :)
Janessa did not inherit her cake decorating talent from me!
Bishop Jolley's favorite present was getting keys today to our new church building.
This is his new Bishop's office
(as you cane see the pictures are not even hung up yet.
We will start meeting in this building in about 2 weeks.
It is a beautiful Stake Center, is was fun to go inside and see it)
So today Jayci turned 9 and Dad turned 55,
they are sharing a 9:55 moment
here on Tues 8-9
It was a great Golden Birthday!
What a wonderful birthday for those two birthday kids! I wish we could have been there to celebrate with you. Looks like you had quite the crew to celebrate with though. I love the 9:55 picture! So clever! That's exciting that dad got the key to the new building! I was actually going to ask you when you were going to be getting into that building when I talked to you on the phone today but totally forgot. My mind must have been somewhere else! Give those two birthday kids a big hug for me!
ReplyDeleteI am cracking up at that cake! I love how that girl knows what she wants and you are so good to accomodate :) What a fun party day, especially with so much family around. I just realized I still have their b-day cards sitting here that I never mailed! Can I still blame my 2 month old for baby brain? Happy birthday, Dad and Jayci!
