DISNEY ON ICE

Sorry I haven't had an update in a while. We have been really busy lately. I have tons of pictures to post so bear with me.

Last night we took Alexia to Disney On Ice. We had so much fun. Alexia was so excited to see Ariel. Surprisingly she says she liked Tinkerbell the best. Here are some pics and movies from the show. Some of them are blurry, my camera was in and out of focus.
We got there an hour before the show for the "Princess Pre-Show." We got to see some of the princesses' dresses and memorabilia from the movies.
Even Cinderella herself was there!

A couple pics before the show


Mickey and Minney were first

followed by Cars

Ariel was next

Then there was Lion King and Tinkerbell.

HaLlOwEeN!!!

Alexia was a mermaid this year. She had a really good time at the ward trunk-or-treat, but when it came time to trick-or-treat, she wasn't interested. She wanted to pass out candy instead. After much convincing she finally put her costume on and off we went. We got half way around the block and she was done. I tried to talk her into going up to the doors since we had to pass the houses anyway, but she just wasn't interested. Maybe next year we'll just do the ward party.


This picture was taken right before trick-or-treating.


Here is one at the ward trunk-or-treat which was Thursday.

I love this picture of Alexia and Hayden!!

At the beginning of October Shannon's friend Shauna and her family came to visit. She has a little boy, Hayden, that's around Alexia's age. Alexia and Hayden met when she went to Utah last September. They just love each other. Its so sweet to watch them play. Here are a few of my favorite pictures from their visit.


Arrrgggggggg!!!


Sweet Girl (but don't let her fool you!)

BALANCING ACT


Here are some pictures of Alexia at gymnastics. This is her favorite activity. She loves coming home and practicing her flips and hand stands.

As promised here are the photos of Alexia playing soccer. Originally I was told she would have three practices, then her games would begin. However, I found out the other day that the age group that she is in actually doesn't have games at all. Alexia loves it anyway, I hope this is something she will want to continue.


This one just cracks me up!!

Hi All! Sorry I've been MIA lately. We have been very busy. Alexia is continuing her gymnastics and soccer. Soccer pictures are this Saturday. School pictures were last week. I will try and get them sent out or at least posted as soon as I get them. I promise to post more soon.

Alexia's Soccer


Alexia started soccer yesterday. She was so stinking cute in her little shin guards and cleats. She was really nervous going out on the field with all the other little kids since she didnt know anyone. She was glued to my side for the first few minutes, but Alexia is quite the social butterfly and it didnt take her long to make new friends. Their coach, Billy, had them race (boys against the girls) the width of the soccer field and Alexia won twice. On the third race across the field she tripped and fell. As a couple other parents and the coach rushed over to her as she got trampled by the other kids she popped up, raised her arms to the sky and shouted "Im ok!" and finished racing to the other side. She had a great time. We can't wait until next week.

Happy Birthday, Uncle Austin!

Ok, so I realize the video is sideways, but who knew you couldn't rotate video once it was taken?? And Lex was only willing to do one take. Anyways, Happy Birthday, Uncle Austin!
