Give Thanks

Forever Blessed



It sounds so cliche to say it, but we were forever blessed this year with Alexi entering the world. It took a long time for our baby and we are thankful God handed her down to us. She is the perfect gift. She is such a wonderful baby, beautiful, precious, adorable, loving, and so much more. There really are no words to fully describe how we feel about our baby girl.

We spent most of 2008 pregnant, forcasting what it would be like with Lexi in our lives. We had a pretty good idea, but we really did not understand how much and how unconditional our love would be for her. I often look at her in total amazement and thank God for creating the perfect child for us.

We spent Lexi's first Thanksgiving with family, food, and football! We had a great time celebrating at our house and hope to have the rest of the family join us next year. We are thankful for our family of four (including Andie), our extended family and loving friends, and for Lexi bringing joy in our lives and changing the house on Crestridge Lane into a home.

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!!
