Well today is Favorite Foto Friday and sadly Sarah http://www.kissthefrog4me.blogspot.com/ internet access is a little crackly right now - so instead of a theme I am posting foto's from my mom, dad, sister and brother in law's visit 3 weeks ago ... has it already been 3 weeks? UGH! It always takes forever for it to come and then flies right on by ... Jaden enjoyed EVERY single second of her Spring Break and time with my family ... she misses them terribly and luckily talks to them regularly on the phone and we sends homemade cards, pictures and lots of OLIVE JUICE'S there way! My family arrived after a L-O-N-G 26 hour car ride on Friday March 21st and stayed for week. It was fun and action filled week with a birthday party planned, Easter, The Mall of America, the Buffet at Mystic Lake Casino, The 'other' mall, the zoo, shopping, eating out and of course staying up late and sleeping in ... not to mention lots of hugs and kisses! I will be posting a TON of photos so I hope you all have some time to read up on Jaden's Spring Break visit with her NY Family ...
Love ~ The Clark Family ~ Rebekah, Jason and Jaden TOO!

Enjoyed all the pictures! Looks like Jaden was the center of attention and she had a ball with your family and her friends. Time sure does fly by and I cannot believe it is already April.

I saw Jaden in a "Little Gym" shirt. Madeline went there for a 1 1/2 years and then the owners closed the gym due to twin girls that weree expecting, they already had 2 boys 5 & 3 years old. It was just a lot of work. They were only open the year and a half. She had a great time there but now does ballet which she prefers anyhow.

Have a great weekend!
