Christmas Eve Pictures

It is Christmas time and I used to send out Christmas card to everyone. Unfortunately, it is expensive and now that everyone uses photographers, it is even tougher. Instead, I snapped a few photos in our backyard and posted them on social media. I think they turned out fairly well considering that Lexi wasn't really cooperating and I used my cell phone. 

Church Christmas Party

Our church Christmas party was tonight. We were excited for dinner, friends, and the kids' performance. Lexi and Jordan also got to sit on Santa's lap.

Snow in Houston

We woke up to find snow... here in Houston! That's a big deal. It rarely happens here. The last time it snowed was 8 years ago, when we were in San Diego, so we missed it. Lexi was really upset that I made her go to school. The roads were clear and I knew it would melt soon. She got to play in it before school, all the way while we walked there, and during first period, which is PE. I know that because I did my morning walk after dropping Jordan off and I saw all of her PE class out there having fun. 

Jordan's Party

Lexi's friend, Jordan, came to Altitude today to hang out with Lexi during her brother's birthday. So, Jordan came to Jordan's birthday. They had a lot of fun bouncing around.

Thanksgiving 2017

Thanksgiving at Grandma and Papa's house was amazing. The food was delicious and the kids got to help cook. Lexi's apple pie tasted like a regular one with sugar. 

Pie Prep for Thanksgiving

We are spending the week at Grandma's for Thanksgiving. We also happen to be dog sitting - Tutti and Lucy, which is always something that Lexi likes. 

Riding on Papa's golf cart

Lexi helped Grandma make a sugar-free apple pie today. They used frozen concentrate instead of sugar. It looks delicious. 

Basketball Practice

Both of Lexi's coaches were at practice tonight. I snapped a few photos. They really focus on defense, which I think is smart with girls at this age. I like that they explain a lot of things. I think she'll learn a lot this year.
