oh monopoly!

During Christmas vacation, Jason, Uncle Jeff and Uncle Chip played monopoly at Grandma Mike's house.  Lexi was very interested in the game and played on Jason's "team."  When we got home I bought Monopoly Junior "Party."  Lexi was so excited and from that day on we have played it almost every. single. day.  We love playing it as a family between dinner and bath time.  Lexi loves to pass out the "property" cards and she loves to get the chance cards.  She is competitive, but also so sweet during the game.  There have been times where she owes me $3, but she will insist on giving me $4 because she loves me.  She often tell me she wants me to win more than she wants to win.  If she doesn't win and she wants to, she is always a good sport.  I think she just loves us all being together and having fun...and so do we.  :)

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!!
