Lexi's Halloween Birthday Party

Lexi had the greatest idea of waiting till the weekend before Halloween to have her 5th Birthday. That gave Mom and Dad plenty of time to get the house all shaped up for viewing. It was so much fun having our friends and family here. The costumes made it even better. She had a blast! Thank you all for all the fun and amazing gifts. We'll see you all again when she turns 8! LOL

Our LUCK!

The following are just a few pictures of the nasty-ness that was left behind for us. We didn't even get to add pictures of the floor and carpet because it was every inch of it. The carpet was black and all torn up in the living room and the vinyl in the kitchen and dinning room was torn to heck and back. Yes, they FINLLY made it all better but it didn't help mommy's stress level one bit. Luckily I can count my blessings and say that Matt was my HERO. I crashed out from sheer exhaustion and he kept moving on. Nothing would have gotten done here with out him. Once we're settled I will have to post more pictures. Better pictures. ( YES, that's hair poking out)

After the maddens of the move October 7th

It was 8 before we were even able to get out the door to take Lexi to her favorite restaurant. She wanted of course Chili's for her birthday. It was well worth it. They even gave her her own malten lava cake. Being so cute must pay off :). LOL

Lexi turns 5 on October 7th 2009.......

Lexi's Birthday was a crazy day. We actually moved into our new house on base that day so thanks to some amazing friends she never new the difference. Miss Katie came and took her to school but not before stopping in at walmart to buy her Snow White. Lexi was thrilled! Than after school she spent the afternoon with her BFF Emily till the movers finished up their business. When she did get home I managed to have the table all decorated with her presents all arranged nicely. She had so much fun. Thank you ALL for making her day so amazing and wonderful.

Lexi's 5th Birthday at School

We were so excited to be able to celebrate Lexi's birthday with her class. Daddy and brother even got to come and help out. She loved having us in her class with her teachers and friends. Of course it had to be Ariel her very favorite Princess EVER! So she tells me. ( I could have done better with the cupcakes BUT the school has a policy that the food must be purchased and labeled with the ingredients. I was sad that they messed up so badly BUT Lexi NEVER noticed!)
