Christmas In July

We had a great weekend with Mom and Grandma!  Lexi calls Grandma Mike, "Muke" and Great Grandma, "Gigi."  On Saturday, we went to the American Girl Doll Store, made a mosaic tile butterfly ornament, went out for pizza, and then stopped for a frozen custard dessert.  It was a busy day, but it was a blast!  Muke and Gigi bought Lexi a baby doll at AG while she wasn't looking and surprised her when we got home.  Lexi LOVES her doll.  The creator of AG is an absolute genius!  They had us hooked...all of us, even Jason I think!  Lexi named her baby, drum roll please..."Nine."  Sometimes when you ask Lexi her baby's name, she'll answer, "Nine Ten."  I assume this means Nine's middle name is Ten.  Lexi eats with Nine, sleeps with her, feeds her, and changes her diaper.  Lexi and Nine are bff's!
This weekend Lexi's new arts and crafts table arrived as well!  It is a perfect place to sit and color, read books, and do puzzles.  Another surprise package arrived with the table...Lexi's new owl backpack for school (tear)!  It is a perfect fit for Lexi since she loves owls!

Day 8

Sometimes when life seems hard, sad, or stressful, I like to just stop for a moment and find something happy or peaceful. This evening, Lexi and I were driving home and we noticed the beautiful sunset. I stopped so we could take a picture on my phone. When I look at the sky and it looks like this, it makes me think of the loved ones we have lost and are now in Heaven. Instead of feeling sadness, I feel comfort they are in their forever home in the arms of Jesus. I'm thankful to have to ability to remember and the faith to feel comfort. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Day 12

Today I am thankful for Apple.  Apple makes great technology.  Jason has been in Canada for almost a week and because of our iPads we were able to facetime with him!  Lexi gets a little shy when the conversation begins, but she quickly warms up and loves to talk and kiss him.  We love and miss him so much when he is traveling.  We are looking forward to the summer when he is home with us for a couple of months straight!!

kindergarten boxcar parade

Well, everyone was healthy until Lexi got the flu and I got pneumonia.  Needless to say, it's been a rough week...BUT, we are better again and for the most part back to normal.  Jason, Lexi and I all worked together on this and we think it turned out great!  All the boxcars were unique and wonderful!  The parade was wonderful...it should have been televised!!
