Jamie and John's Blog

Jenny played the "call to the post" at the UK vs USC game Oct. 16th. (Go Big Blue- sorry Rob). Jenny auditioned for the honor to step out onto the field by herself and play the bugle call! It was really amazing to watch her up on the big screen! She made us so proud!! Great job, Jenny!!

If you hadn't heard, John is starting his new job tomorrow (Oct.5th) and is officially now a Coca-Cola employee and no longer with Momentum World Wide. John is very excited to get started- he has been looking for a change for a while now and it seems he has found a great job!! It just happened to be an eventful week for Coke employees and in the past 2 days we have been at a Reds Game in the Coca-Cola Suite and also had dinner at Sal's with Joker Phillips and watched his call-in radio show live!! Two amazing nights- I hope this is just a glimpse of the great things that are to come with this position! Congratulations John and thanks for taking your wife along! :)

Recently John, Steve and I all went on a hunt for all 82 or 89 or however many artistic horses there are scattered all over downtown and around Lexington. We saw about 67- pretty good for one day! I thought I'd share some of our favorites and some of our least favorites.. I'll let you decide which is which! The last horse is cool because it was completely covered in Alice in Wonderland theme drawn by hand in Sharpie. HINT: Worst horse I've ever seen, John re-named (her?) Dollar Store Disaster! Fun Day! We'll post a slideshow later when I can sort through John and Steve's pictures, they are much better shots!

On July 17 th , two of our best friends were married at St. Peter's Church in Lexington. We were very honored to stand next to them as they said their vows to each other! The wedding was beautiful- Lindsay's dress was gorgeous, the flowers were classy and the food was unbelievable ! Congratulations Casey and Lindsay- hope your first year of marriage is full of fun and exciting times!

The Baker family vacation at Lichfield beach was a blast this year with the addition of Parker Reece! We all had fun being on vacation over the 4 th of July weekend and enjoyed the fireworks on the beach!

John and I just got back from Niagara Falls where we watched Johnny and Cat get married on June 26, 2010! The entire weekend was packed full of fun events- Thursday night- bachelor/bachelorette party with a pirate theme! Friday- rehearsal, Maid of the Mist boat ride, rehearsal dinner with a view! Saturday- Wedding and reception Cat was so beautiful in her gown! Cat and Johnny both said traditional vows, but also they each said personally written vows. A single violin player serenaded the wedding and played through a the receiving line/cocktail hour afterward. The bridal party went to Goat Island to take wedding photos with Niagara Falls in the background! The reception was very classy and fun! The food was amazing and everyone seemed to take a turn on the dance floor! Cat and Johnny had a great time visiting with family and friends. I hope they remember this amazing weekend for the rest of their lives! Congratulations!
