December 8th, 2013
Although Jayden's actual birthday fell on a Friday this
year (which is normally an ideal day to celebrate a birthday!), our busy
schedule meant that we would have to gather with family on another day. We did
manage to celebrate with a dinner out at Red Robin after Samantha's volleyball
game before returning home for the evening. We allowed Jay to open the presents
that came from us as a family, and she seemed very pleased with what she got!

A closer look at the slippers. The ears flop up and down when
she walks in them!

Two days after Jayden's actual birthday we were able to
gather together to celebrate her special day! Jay wants to thank everyone who
made it (and even those who weren't there physically but where there in spirit -
even though they were enjoying the warm Florida sun while we suffered in the
cold!) and she says thank you for the presents!
