Twinkle Star

Jenna has become quite the entertainer. She can sing many songs such as:


  • Twinkle Twinkle, Little star

  • Itsy Bitsy Spider

  • Two little bluebirds

  • Two little dickybirds

  • ABC's (sort of)

  • I'm a little teapot

  • Row Row Row your boat

  • Happy Birthday to you

  • The wheels on the bus

Here is a video of her singing Twinkle Star. Very cute!


I've also finally decided to post a picture from our Daytona trip. This is Jenna all decked out in her Arial bathing suit complete with sunglasses and hat. She is adorable.

I've also included a picture of Erik and I at NASA when we toured the Kennedy Space Center. It was so awesome it made me want to be an astronaut. I even teared up during the video of the first moon walk. How inspiring! It's always been my dream to go to Mars and help terraform it. Maybe I should stop reading sci-fi....

In goofier news, I've added a picture of the premarital couple we have been working with. Erik and I are marriage mentors at our church and we have been meeting with Ben and Anne to prepare them for marriage and pass on some of our wisdom (however limited that may be). They remind us of ourselves not too long ago. 22, in school, and getting married in September. How cool!

Today I got 68 points on Quiddler and got to make the word nth. Now that's a cool word. Only 6 more days until Harry Potter 7. I can't wait!!!

Weird and Wicked

My birthday (Thursday the 5th) was absolutely wonderful. I went to see Wicked with my Mom and had excellent seats. Wicked is an awesome musical and I absolutely loved it. In fact, I've listed the plays I've seen in order of my favorites. Now I haven't seen many obviously and I might have forgotten some, but here is my list:
  1. Wicked
  2. Phantom of the Opera
  3. The Scarlet Pimpernel
  4. Anything Goes
  5. Miss Saigon
  6. On Friday the 6th, Erik, Missy, Amanda, and I went to see Weird Al Yankovic in concert. All I can say is WOW!! That was one of the best concerts I've seen. I haven't made a list yet, but it will definitely be at the top. I was laughing the whole time. He is a genius. In fact, I spent all day today reading about him. He was valedictorian of his high school class and graduated 2 years early. He really is a genius!! My newest favorite song of his is White and Nerdy It is hilarious!!
  7. I can't wait to see him again :).
