Columbus Komen Race for the Cure

Taylor and Aubree joined 50,000 Columbus, Ohio residents to Race for the Cure this weekend!


Ohio has the fourth highest mortality rate from breast cancer. The city raised over $2 million on Saturday, 75% of which will stay within the state to put towards education, research and treatment.


Thank you, Aubree and Taylor!

Columbus's local Komen chapter claims they have the largest race in the country...I guess they haven't been to the great city of St. Louis! The goal this year is to have 75,000 walking for a cure in downtown St. Louis! We hope you can join Team Jenna

Mother's Day and Emma turns 4 Months

It was my first Mother's Day and I enjoyed every second of it! It was also Emma's 4 month birthday.
We had a fabulous breakfast of fresh fruit, pancakes and eggs outside on the back patio at my Mom's house.

Here are some pictures from the day. And the last photo is the artwork Emma made for me at school with her hand prints! I love it!

Hope all the mommies had a Happy Mother's Day!
Love,
Jenna

Emma's first Road Trip

Last weekend, Rett and I packed up Emma and the car and headed to Kansas City. I had made a packing list for Emma since it was our first road trip and I was actually surprised that we didn't have as much stuff as I thought.

We had a big weekend planned. We were celebrating my brother's 28th birthday, my grandma's (Dee Dee) 80th birthday, mom was hosting a sip n see for Emma and celebrating Mother's Day. On Thursday before we left, Dee Dee was diagnosed with shingles. We were all so bummed at the timing as this was going to be the first time Dee Dee and Papa met Emma. We will reschedule soon once everyone is healthy!

We stopped in Columbia on the way for Shakespeare's Pizza. How can anyone resist it? We even used their famous orangey red washcloths as Emma's bib! What a yummy pit stop!

Here is Taylor enjoying his birthday present: a monogrammed decanter with Seagrams!



Mom hosted a fabulous sip n see for Emma. It was so fancy and what a beautiful day! Here are some pictures from the day!

Thanks for a wonderful time, Mom!

That night we went to Em Chamas, a Brazilian Grill, where they bring you endless meats to the table as long as your button is green. Emma and Uncle Taylor were all in!

Love,
Jenna
