Our Day At The Mall

Avery and I needed an excuse to get out of the house yesterday, so I decided we go to the mall. It's a nice way to spend the morning!!

We saw the really, really tall tree -

We even saw Santa. Avery only thought she wanted to go talk to him, she even waived from afar, but then quickly changed her mind when we got closer. I am not one of those people who make her take pictures with Santa if she doesn't want to. Maybe next year.

I do love this playground. I never feel like I have to follow her around, it's that soft foamy material and even if she fell off it's all low to the ground, so it wouldn't hurt. I just let her play and play and play and play. My daughter is always about a head taller than most all kids her age, even kids a little older than her. I always say my daughter is so tall, and people tell me, "It's OK Jenna - her parents are tall!" like I am saying she is tall because I don't like it. I love that my daughter is tall. I didn't love being tall my teenage years because I was taller than most all boys (I was never taller than Jason, even as a teen!) but as a young adult, I started to realize how much I loved being tall!!

I just can't believe we only have two weekends before we go back out of town to celebrate Christmas with Jason's family, then, it's Christmas? This year, December is rushing through way too fast.

What is Your Skin Care Regimen?

Since turning 34 this year, I've been really trying to make sure I am taking care of my skin. I have been using Cover Girl Liquid Powder for years, but it always seemed to break my neck out. And full disclosure, my face cleaning routine consisted of using Avery's baby wipes (which actually do remove eye makeup surprisingly well). So, needless to say, my skin didn't always look its best. So, I received some gift cards for my birthday and I decided to go ahead and spring for some better products. First thing I did was get something designed to clean my face. I ordered the Olay ProX Microdermabrasion System. This system came with the battery-operated scrubber with both a brush and foam pad, plus every day face wash and microdermabrasion wash to be used twice a week. I have really loved using this system. The beauty is that you can really use any face wash you'd like. I will probably buy a pore-reducing wash after the tube they sent me is empty. This syst

It was a very good day.

I love it when God smiles upon us. I mean, He smiles upon us all the time. But sometimes, it's like sunshine, and Christmas morning, and rainbows, and babies, and awesomeness. On steroids. And I know that those times are not always permanent, so I learn to really wrap myself in His goodness, to take it all in, be happy, and just sit back and wait to see what He is going to do in my life. We have been struggling so long. I knew it was only a matter of time before things would be OK again. Where we would feel a little stability. Where we would take all of the things we learned while struggling and apply then when times are good. We have alot of great things going on in our lives right now. Some really great things. Some amazing, mindblowing, off the grid kind of great things. I wish I could share more, but for right now, let's just say that we are incredibly blessed with some great opportunities God is putting in our lives. I leave you with a gorgeous picture of our biggest bl

Dancing With Dad

I have been working on a project these last couple of weeks for my previous company. Yesterday, I was working on my computer and heard roaring laughter coming from Avery's room. I walk in and found Jason and Avery dancing and singing away. By sheer coincidence, this popped up on my Timehop today. Avery was only 1 in this picture. Boy, are these kiddos lucky to have such a great dad! It makes me heart melt.
