Lexibug is 1!

So I am only 2 1/2 months late...pretty good I think.
I can't believe she is already 1! (2 1/2 months ago)
For her birthday party we went to our church building. It worked great. We played a game in the gym, had cake in the kitchen and played games in a room with closed doors! No one escaped!This is Alexis' friend Lydia.
This is her BFF Dayna. They are 11 days apart and hung out a lot in primary before we moved.

Alexis had many helpers opening presents.
It was a little chaotic!
MORE FRIENDS!!

THE CAKE
At first she was being very picky with her cake.
She eventually figured it out...
and started digging in.

The final product of the cake...

and the final product for her. And umm yes, I forgot a bib.

Kellen gets baptized

Kellen was baptized in November with his cousin Abby. They are 2 weeks apart, so we had a very special day for both of them. Kellen is a great example to his brother, sister and friends. We are so proud of him, he is a blessing to our family.

STAGES OF OUR HOUSE

We have been going out to our house every week since September when they broke ground. The boys are tired of going out but are excited to finally stay. It has been fun to see the progress. We are very excited to move into our new house, but are sad to leave our friends in Richland. I guess it's a good thing Pasco is just the next town. We will move the end of January.
