camping under the stars

Well, not exactly what the title says, but kind of...

We went on our first family camping trip!  We went all the way to Grapevine, Texas.  We had a small (ok, very small) cabin on the lake...well, kind of close to the lake.  We arrived Saturday afternoon and took Lexi to the park on site and on a nature walk.  We then went to downtown Grapevine to eat dinner (roughing it, I know) and went through a couple of shops.  Once we arrived back to the campsite we made a fire in the fire pit and made s'mores!  Lexi brought her Barbie camper and her favorite stuffed animals and Nine to enjoy the fire as well.  After the s'mores we went back inside and Lexi enjoyed a show on the iPad and Jason and I watched football before going to bed.

While we were watching football we were also updating our Twitter accounts non-stop following the hockey lockout news.  We went to bed without a CBA deal, but when we woke up THERE WAS HOCKEY AGAIN!!!  We hurried and packed up the car and drove home so Jason could go to the office.  Cabin #2 at the Vineyard Campgrounds in Grapevine, Texas is our new lucky spot.  GO STARS!!

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!!
