Lexi’s Birthday Outing

Since it wasn’t an official “party” year, I invited five of Lexi’s closest classmates to come have a girls’ afternoon after school.  Mabel, Kailey, Lucy, Makenna and Kaelyn.  It was so much fun.  They are such a fun, sweet group of girls. I feel so thankful that she has good friends and that I really like all their moms too!   We went into a little boutique The Diva Girl since Lexi got a gift certificate for that store (even tho it’s sort of a rival of Trinkets ha ha).  Then we went to a local beauty school and they all got manicures/pedicures (for $6 per girl).  They chose to eat a healthy dinner at McDonald’s, and we ended the evening at Baskin Robbins (Lexi’s choice, no complaints from mom!).  As we were in the car, laughing & singing…I had a glimpse into the teenage years and only hope she can have this caliber of friends at that point too!

Lexi’s Baptism

We had a beautiful day for a beautiful girl.  Lexi seemed to glow in her dress and bask in the love of family and friends.   I feel very thankful for her and proud to have Lexi as my daughter!!!

Thanksgiving w/ the Blascos

My mom planned an early Thanksgiving get together this year.  She “whipped up” a delicious dinner (she really made it seem so easy) and we all hung out for an evening!

This is my favorite pic (below).  Dad thought he’d sneak off for some quiet TV time…only all six kids followed and made themselves at home!

Pey’s Preschool Lunch:

Pey loves her friends at preschool.  She is quite the social kid.  Here are some snapshots of their “party” for Thanksgiving.
