Alexis' Blue Room

Our Little house has all white walls inside...

...until Alexis picked blue walls in her room

This is what she wanted for her 8th birthday

She loves her new set up

August Events

This last week has been very busy!

While family was in town,
we also celebrated Alexis' 8th birthday.
Grandma Pat made Alexis her name tag,
now we all have one.

Of course, she got clothes also

Grandma Pat is so silly!

Papa, Grandma Pat and Grandpa came up

Aunt Cheryl came up

For Alexis' special day

We got ready to go...

...to Alexis' Baptism

4 years ago this was Adriana's Baptism

We are glad Papa came up to baptize her

Alexis in her Confirmation dress with cousin Odessa.

She looks like a princess

Alexis had fun at the North Park

Eden joined in the fun

Adriana just hung around

Adriana has REALLY improved her soccer skills.
Ignore the SUPER excited mother (me)
screaming in the background.
Check out the sweet pass with her left foot,
to a teammate for a GOAL!

Alexis met friends and decided a human pyramid would be fun

Adriana's orthodontist held an evening at Cascade Bay,
for Customer Appreciation.

They went down the slides

They swam in the pool, and enjoyed the Lazy River

David put off working a little to join in the fun

Alexis Swimming Lessons

Alexis enjoyed Swimming Lessons this year

This is Alexis and her swim teacher

She looked up at me with a look that says it all,
"There goes mom with her camera again"

The boy in her class was afraid to get into the deep end.
So, Alexis tried to show him how easy it was.
She is so graceful!

She completed level 3 and will be in level 4 next summer

Alexis turns EIGHT

The baby of the our Little family,
turned 8 years old!

She was SO excited for her new headband

What a CUTIE!

Any girl would smile big over getting new shoes

Her very own scriptures

She really liked her Lady Bug sleeping bag

Happy Birthday!
This is my favorite...
Adriana: "What did you wish for?"
Alexis: "No, I made a wish. I wish I had a B..."
Adriana: "NO NO NO...It won't come true if you tell me!"

7-26-2010

Each of the girls had a special event on July 26, 2010.

Alexis got her ears pierced!

After her gymnastics,
we all headed to Adriana's soccer game.

Here is her team during the 1/2 hour practice,
before the game.



Adriana has really improved her soccer skills.

During Half Time David and Alexis,
kicked the soccer ball around a little.
