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.

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!!

About a month ago we received an email about the daddy/daughter dance tonight.  Jason attached the flyer and forwarded it to me saying, "I have to work."  I frowned and moved on.  I didn't think much about it until the other day.  I had an "a-ha" moment and asked Jason if we could ask his dad so Lexi wouldn't miss out on the ball.  Jason called Kevin the next day and I received a text from Jason right after saying, "My dad would be happy to take Lexi."  I was delighted and Lexi was on cloud 9 when I told her Paw Paw wanted to take her to the ball (side note...we didn't tell Lexi about the ball because we didn't think she was going to be able to attend since Jason was out of town). The next day Jason left work early and met us at the mall for a little ball dress shopping.  Lexi danced around the dressing room in about 8 diff...
