spa girls

Lately I have been waking up in the middle of the night or super early in the mornings and have been unable to go back to sleep.  I decided to go into a spa to see what they offer such as teas, eye masks, etc.  I talked to a massage therapist and she offered me and Lexi some time in the relaxation room.  She made me tea and gave Lexi some water.  We each had our own recliner, eye mask, lavender heated blankets and neck wraps.  Lexi stayed in her chair with her feet up and eye mask on.  Sadly, I don't have a picture of that, but I was lying there thinking about what a big kid she has turned into.  I remember walking into stores praying that she would behave, be quiet, listen, etc.  When we got home she said I should heat up my new neck wrap because she knew how tired I was.  So, we heated up the wrap and took turns using it.  Today, I bought some fresh lavender and put it on my bedside table.  Lexi took one piece of lavender and placed it on her bedside table.  She told me how she is going to sleep like a baby now because of it.  As I type this I am drinking my tea and using my neck wrap.  Lexi is soundly sleeping in her room and Jason is playing hockey.  I think it's time to scoop up my little lady and grab some zzz's together.

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!!
