Happy 5th Birthday Lexi!










Wow, we can't believe that our Alexis is 5 years old!!! So crazy how fast she has grown! We had a fun little Tinker Bell party with her and her friends. I made a mushroom with Tinker Bell sitting ontop of it for her cake and then a few little green grass cup cakes beside it. We were; however, worried that she would not be able to have her party since a few days before the pary, on her actual birthday, she, Joseph and Hyrum had a "puke fest". They did recover nicely and still had a great day on Saturday! A few of our favorite things about Lexi are : Lexi loves people! She is so friendly and loves to be around anyone, especially if they are willing to play barbies or stuffed animals with her. Alexis has such a fun, funny personality. She often makes us laugh by the things she says. ie. After receiving a shirt from Grandma B. that said "Treat me like a Princess" on it, Lexi came to me and Steve with tears in her eyes and said, "Hyrum said that he won't treat me like a princess." I love how much Lexi loves her sister! Eliza loves to be with Lexi as well!! We love Lexi and are so thankful for 5 fabulous years so far!

Halloween!!










Well, I have not added to our blog since mid September. We had so much fun with Halloween this year that I really want to share a few pictures. Doesn't Steve make an awesome Super Man?? I found his costume at Goodwill the day before. I decided to look through the kids' costumes to find something for me... CAT WOMAN! It worked. Lexi chose her costume and I just thought it was so cool that I found that costume for Steve this year. The boys both bought their own costumes. They each chose to be Anakin, from Star Wars, but they were different Anakins. We had such great weather, that we stayed out late and just had a great time!
