Welcome Katie!

Jordan is such a lucky girl to have her best friend from Florida come visit for 5 days! This was Katies first time flying by herself!!! It was a little crazy picking her up as I did not give enough time. I planned enough time for a "normal pick up" plus some more but really needed to be there like I was going on a flight. The good news is Katie was only there for about 10 minutes before we had her and she didn't seem nervous.
Jordan has their agenda made and ready to get started! Jordan's welcome sign
Katie and Jordan are 1 year apart with Jordan being the older one. Jordan is of course the smaller of the two but that is the case with all of her friends. (side note, Jordan just went for a check up and confirmed that she is a tiny girl being only 5% for weight and height. 60lb's and Jackson has now overtaken her in size)
The girls have known each other since they were born. They have never lived in the same place but have been on many vacations with each other and to each others houses
.

They had surprises for each other and picked right back up where they left off. They were together for a day in May in HHI.
Jordan is just so excited to show and do everything with Katie!
Shopping at the mall. Jordan has picked up this past time very quickly. Not so sure that Dad will approve the credit card??

Limited Too and Abercrombie seemed to be the hot spots. Yes, the girls bought matching shirts. They must still be into that! Very cute selections that they made.

I mentioned Jordan's Dr. visit earlier this week- she got 3 shots. I had told her that if she wanted to get one more "shot" she could get her ears pierced. This is something that she wanted to do but didn't have the courage yet. (Sorry, Grandma Pat, never liked the cant get your ears pierced until I was 16 rule- anyone want to take a guess as to when I got mine done??? I will just say that I didn't follow my Moms rule- cant remember if I got in trouble for that one or not??)

Well, she did it!
A little nervous but so glad that she did it.
Katie was there cheering her on.

Jordan with earrings in!
She was so happy and cant wait to show her friends and Dad!
From Cub Scout camp to the mall- Boy do I have the best of both worlds!!!

After the mall, back to our house where the girls started the normal girl stuff, getting out games, they baked brownies for the boat tomorrow and finished the night watching the movie Aqua Marine on the zoom box. Notice the matching PJ"S! No, they did not make it to the end before they were both fast asleep. Caroline, they brushed their teeth well so know we are taking great care of her! She seems very comfortable and happy!
Katie, we are so glad that you are here!

When do I get to come and play for 5 days? She looks like she is having a blast. Can't wait to see pics of the lake.
