5th and 8th Grade

The girls wanted curly hair for their first day

It worked great for Alexis, not so much for Adriana

It was a rainy day

Alexis' Birthday Party

She picked to party at Skateville

Her friends began arriving

Andrew and Emily were among the group

They enjoyed hotdogs and chips

and lots of Sprite

She got to try and catch cash in the wind box

Everyone got mouth pieces that light up

She was SO excited about her umbrella

smile pretty

she LOVES Mike and Ike

What is this?

Caught a moment of awe

TADA, thanks Tennants

Everyone enjoyed cupcakes before it was a wrap

Alexis Turns 10




Alexis turned double digits this year



It was like Christmas for her

We decorated and made cupcakes for the celebration

Her theme was balloons and candles

Added streamers to the tree
Adriana kept herself busy while we waited for Alexis to get home
She arrived home and started opening gifts

She rocked her new outfit
Very fancy...

What a M-O-D-E-L
 
 What did you say?

For dinner we went to Perkins
When we got home we lit the candles

 
We don't claim to be professional singers

Alexis dove right in
Literally
It was a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Girls Camp

YW Camp this year was in Duluth, MN

After last year in Nauvoo, she was ready for dorm life
Of course, the bus pulls up right behind Lori's car
The girls load all their survival gear (hair dryers and makeup) into the trailer

Farmington Ward is ready to go

Adriana is excited

Alexis is excited to have the house to herself

She got together with Jenae for a swim
They did some pool cleaning also

FUN FUN FUN

A week later, Adriana returned home

They were glad to be together again
