Janelle Weekly: Stranded in Beaver

Monday 1 : Janelle went on a Razor riding group date at the sand dunes. (See previous weekly).

Tuesday 2:  Janelle planned a group friend activity -- Tellestrations, Snake Oil, Hunger Games simlulator...

Wednesday 3: Janelle planned a night hiking date with Bryton and they had their first kiss! 

Friday 5: Janelle went cliff jumping with Bryton and his family (in January!!) They wore wet suits, but it was still freezing!! She then went to the temple with Bryton's family. 

Saturday 6: Janelle taught her MTC class online and then started driving to Provo and her car broke down and she got stranded in Beaver! Thankfully Bryton was also driving up a little behind her and was able to pick her up and take her!! 

Junior Prom

Jaiden went to Junior Prom tonight! (January 29, 2022) She got asked to Junior Prom on November 22, 2021 by a good friend of hers, Caleb Slater...

Jaiden and Caleb doubled with Emily and Lane. They went with another carload to Vegas and played Top Golf and went out to eat. They saw some of the sights and then headed back to get ready for the dance. 

Jaiden had gotten her dress for really cheap at Suzy's Closet several months ago, but it was sleeveless and so we brought it to a seamstress to get it hemmed and asked her if she could make sleeves out of the bottom part that was cut off. It turned out cute, but turned out to be a lot more expensive than we were hoping for. The alterations were way more than the dress itself. But Jaiden looked gorgeous and hopefully we will get some more use out of the dress in the future! (The dress looks orange in the pictures taken at our house, but it must have just been the lighting, because it is actually a dark coral color -- not orange, ha ha!)

The dance was at the Red Barn. Jaiden said that it was fun, but got shut down twenty minutes early due to the mosh pits -- which apparently also broke the supports underneath the wood floor -- or something like that! 

Sadies!!

Jaiden went to Sadies last week with her friends. Her date had a cross country race in Arizona that day and was hoping to make it back in time for the dance, but then the race was delayed and there was traffic, and he never did make it. But Jaiden was a good sport and still went to the dinner, dance, and games after with her group of friends and still had a great time. The girls knew about the race, of course, and so they had planned the "day date" on a completely different day -- in fact it was a week later. The kids made pancakes (pancake art) at our house and then we did a photoshoot at Tonaquint Park. Jaiden had asked me if I would take their pictures. It was fun!

Pumpkin Carving

While half of the family was partying in Chicago on Janelle's birthday, Jaiden was partying at home. She and Lane carved pumpkins tonight (Jaiden attempted to carve a pumpkin that looked like Lane and Lane attempted to carve a pumpkin that looked like Jaiden, ha ha!) They also watched a horror movie called "Lights Out." Fun times! 

A few days later she and her friends celebrated at the Rinq for Keirra Campbell's birthday party!
