The Two Cutest Girls Ever
My friend Kamille and I decided to make tutus for our girls and take V-day pictures. I think they turned out quite well.

Look -a-Like

I was showing this picture of Lexie to JD's parents and they both immediately said that she looks identical to Grandma V, Morris' mom. We went to visit Grandma V yesterday and she showed us this picture of her when she was about 5 years old. I think they do look a lot alike. Grandma V is looking for a colored picture she has, she says it looks more like Lexie than this picture does. I just thought this was really fun. I love to see genes passed on and who they come from.

Christmas

She was really excited about her stocking, I had to take it away so she would open her presents

We were down at my parents house for Christmas. I have always been an early riser on Christmas and this one was no different. I couldn't sleep all night, the problem with this is that Brynnlee slept the whole night (first time for everything). She hasn't done it since, guess she really wanted presents. I woke Lexie up at 6:30, JD and everybody else was not very happy, but hey it is Christmas! We had a wonderful Christmas with family and friends. Hope everybody had a Merry Christmas.

For Christmas Eve we always have a candle light dinner with creamy potato soup and chicken noodle soup. It would not be complete without my mom homemade rolls. We had a great Christmas Eve family night and dinner.

Christmas Eve day we played outside in the snow for hours. First we got the runner sleds out and went from the driveway to the road. You don't go very fast but it is fast enough for the kids. Then my dad got his new sled out for the snowmobile and pulled the kids around the fields. Brett got the snowcat and built a jump to go snowboarding on. The kids had a blast and it wore them out so they went to bed earlier!

Lexie and Santa

At the Cox Christmas Santa came to visit. I was really nervous about how Lexie would react. She did exactly what I thought she would . . . almost! She cried and screamed when he came in and would not sit on his lap. I had to carry her up there and she wouldn't look at him or talk to him. She was however happy to get a present. The shocker . . . when I put Brynnlee on Santa's lap, Lexie marched right up there and stood by her. She answered all the questions Santa asked and took Brynnlee's present for her.
From that point on she says Santa is nice and brings presents and she likes him. She was excited for Santa to bring her more presents.
