"Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired."- U.S. Army General George S. Patton & 1912 Olympian

Happy 13th Birthday Marlena!!

At 5:15am Friday March 26th Marlena woke up to get her birthday groove on!! It was really rough for Maximus & Maci to get into an early celebration, but they were finally into it after Scott made a breakfast of eggs & toast...... then Marlena opened presents!!

Her new desk & chair she asked for!!Marlena was so excited about the amount of gift cards to go shopping with!! She loved all her gifts!!! Thank you's to everyone in making her 13th extra special!!Please take notice to her zebra cake I made using white & black fondant. She was very happy. I'm certainly not a baker & it was my first time using fondant. We were all impressed. The above shirt Maci picked out for Marlena!!Marlena changed into this funky blue shirt sent by Aunt Kristen, Uncle Kevin, Ian & Evan. At 7:30am she headed out the door for school.Family friend Eyve Capaz (the gift is from Eyve). Friends: Kelly, Ashton, & GeorgieMarlena made these lil banana cream pies as an appetizer!This is lemonade with pop rocks along the rim for a fancy flavor!!
