Vermont 2010

John's parents always take a vacation to the mountains. They are so wonderful that they take all the grandkids. This year, Caitlin broke her arm only 2 hours after they were on the slopes. Accidents happen but they still felt terrible. The kids had a great time even though it didn't turn out like they though. Caitlin getting her arm re-set...ouch!!!!!!!!!
Sweet Meme giving Cait some love.

Running 26.2 for Breast Cancer

John decided that he wanted to do a marathon and this was for a great cause. He was running of Gilda Kinsey...she is my mom at work. She is very special to our entire family!! Sooooo, we went to Jacksonville the night before so that we would be close. So we were down in the lobby at 4:50am and the shuttle had just left so we waited for another one. More and more people came and we were getting a little nervous that we would get there in time. This was on the bus on the way to the start line.
Freezing before the race..
Waiting for them to call the 'blue' group---they fast runners :)
This is at the 6 mile mark.....Go honey!!! I was with Chloe and Emily Dooley and were cheering and making noise for the runner...what an amazing sight.

This is at the 20 MILE MARK------------he was hurting!!!! He was running a 9:30 mile and he started to cramp at mile 18!!!!!!!!!!
Coming up on the finish line........
He finished in 4 hours and 41 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!! Unbelievable! I am so proud!
Wiped out.........
That's my beautiful husband, just moments after getting his metal!!
I am soooooooooo happy for John! He can check it off his bucket list. Except his has plans for next year. I am going to do the half marathon next year..anyone want to join me????
A lot of sweat for GK and the other survivors!

It's baseball season so...that means Freezing weather!

Evan's Birthday

We had a great time at Evan's party. I love him like my own. He has an amazing personality. I am SO glad that he and Chase are best friends. Chase and Evan..with the typical pose.
The birthday boy....
Notice the person between us......
Notice the guns....................
Robbie being an anchor in tug-a-war..
Look at the pole in reference to Karen(5'7). I was in total shock that Chase could jump that high.

Evan~ I hope you had a wonderful day and I know your best days are ahead! Love you~ Mama Jenn

My Valentine

My Honey~ I am not sure what to say about John. Here are a few words that describe my husband: funny, sweet, HOTTTT, smart, loving, compassionate, hard-working, giving, FUN, snuggly, musculely angel from Heaven (per Nancy) Best friend, soul mate, the love of my life. We have an amazing relationship. Everyone that knows us---agrees. We are a perfect match.GOD MADE JOHN JUST FOR ME! There is nothing more to say. We talked about Valentine's day and I went looking for a card. It was strange...many of them are for people that only get shown affection once a year or so. I feel, with John, that I have Valentine's everyday. He treats me like a queen. He spoils me with his actions and I could not feel more loved. He is my angel. I could never ask for more in a husband.....a christian man that loves me and our children to death and there is nothing he would not do for us. I just pray that he feels loved everyday. I could not live a second without him! I love you baby! Thanks for making my life perfect. Below are some pictures over the pictures of the last three years.
































THANKS FOR MAKING MY DAYS SOOOOOOOOOOOO FUN!! ily
