AYLEXIE'S 12TH BIRTHDAY

For Aylexie's 12th birthday party, she chose to have a late nighter with homemade pizza, snacks and for dessert, homemade oreo's. The girls were a little un-enthused about the oreo's until they took one bite---then they were in HEAVEN! What can I say? Cooking is my passion!!! I'm glad my Lexie loves chocolate as much as her mom!!! They had a ton of fun playing bingo, pit, dance dance revolution and just being silly!

For Aylexie's birthday dinner, she wanted homemade egg rolls. I added pears, celery & sugarsnap peas and for dessert....

ASHLEY-2010 SWIM TEAM-ALKI MIDDLE SCHOOL

Ashley loves to swim. She got up every morning at 5:45 to go practice. She usually swam backstroke, freestyle, and relay races. At districts, she placed 4th in relay and 6th in freestyle. On top of everything, she still maintained her 4.00!

Way to go, Ashley!!!

Jeff had more surgery on Dec 23rd to repair a hernia which the doctor's found was not as simple as they had hoped-he had a double hernia repaired. Christmas was more realxed than usual, but nonetheless, wonderful...
