Mt. Kilimanjaro

During our walk yesterday around the block Jenna saw a pretty big pile of rocks outside one of our neighbor's houses...she says,

"Wow, that looks like Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa."

We don't know where she comes up with it...but we think she is pretty dang funny.

OR

The other day I went outside to put the sprinkler under the trampoline so she could jump on it. In order to do so I had to move the heavy thing and Jenna goes,

"Wow Mom, you strong like Dad." I started to laugh and she replied, "You think I funny at tellin' jokes?" For some reason I just thought it was hilarious.

Jenna throws her first party! (behind her parent's backs)

Does this sweet little 5-year-old look like she would throw a unsupervised party behind her parents backs...I mean she is ONLY five...right?!

WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday we all went for a walk around our neighborhood and while we were out Jenna's little friend down the street came running out and asked if she could play. We said yes and told Jenna that we had to walk up to Grandma's house (right up the street from us) to take back some chairs we borrowed so she needed to play at Lizzie's house until we came back. About a half an hour later we see Jenna in her swimsuit running up the street towards us at Grandma's. We knew there was probably trouble because we have the trampoline and little swimming pool set up in our backyard and the kids love to play at our house. Anyways, we start to walk home and can already hear the chants of little kids coming from our house. The front door is wide open and I find about 7 little kids (some of which I have never seen before) on our deck eating our popsicles two at a time and having a party!...wrappers and shoes everywhere. Seeming it was 8:00pm I ushered them out of our house and told Jenna that she can't have friends over when we are not home!!!
