Lexie Made Her First Blanket

A while back Lexie went to a YW service project and learned how to make fleece blankets. Lexie decided that she wanted to make herself a blanket. I took her to Joeann's Fabric to pick out some fleece. The fleece she picked out has all her favorite colors in it and she bought it with her babysitting money. After we got home Lexie starting making her blanket and fished it that night. He blanket turned out super nice and is excited to make more.

Birthday Post From Papa

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRYSON ROBERT

When I think of Bryson I always remember the weeks we spent in Medford and particularly this picture.


For his third birthday I wrote him this little poem:
Today is Bryson's birthday
A very happy day it will be
For my youngest Grandson
Who has the same fine name as me.
I love his little chuckle
I love his great big smiles
I'll be there to cheer his triumphs
I'll support him through his trials.
I hope he'll always remember
I hope he'll always see
Just how much I really love him
And how proud of him I'll be.

Bryson's Three

Bryson told us exactly what he wanted for his birthday this year. Here is what he wanted starting from the top.
1. Buzz cake 2. Buzz toys 3. Slinky Dog 4. Big balls (I think he meant balloons) 5. Walle 6. Play dough
Bryson got everything he wanted and he had a very happy birthday!

Happy 3RD Birthday Bryson!

Bryson is three today and so I'm going to list three reasons why we love him.

1. He is very loving and loves to give kisses and hugs.
2. He is always making us laugh and has a nice smile.
3. Bryson is a great Son, Brother, Grandson and Friend.
We love you Bryson and hope you have a very happy birthday.

For Young Women and Excellence, the girls did a fashion show wearing everything that they loved. It was so fun to see how different each one of the girls dressed! We have great YW in our ward and I can't believe that my Lexie is one of them. She did such a great job strutting her stuff down the runway. I'm so blessed to have Lexie as my daughter. She is great at everything she sets her mind to do and I want her to know that I love her.
