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.  :)

daddy/daughter dance

I have some catching up to do on the blog, but I wanted to write tonight while my feelings and emotions are raw... 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...
