Tally and His Shirt

Found another shirt and he did not play with it until about half an hour after we put it on him. Funny Dog

Sitting lazily with his shirt

Still sitting

Finally playing

Every now and again we will give Tally (our dog) a shirt that has holes and has met its end. We found one in my parents' closet the other day and decided to give it to him. It is a funny thing to watch.

Tally sitting with on leg in and one leg out.

Cripple dog

Happy Dog. No ears!

Half shirt, half dog

Fighting for his shirt

"Blind" dog

No ears! Again

Just like a Snuggie!

Taking a break

Yes, we put the shirt on him, but it is still fun to see how he gets it off himself!

Fun With Chalk

Today I had a friend over and we decided to get out the chalk. I made at lot of stuff but only ended keeping one on the driveway (but when photographing this one I wish had taken pictures of my other creations).

Thought that occurs in the back of my mind- Maybe I will play with chalk tomorrow (these thoughts usually do not get past the back of my mind).

My Birthday Party

Hi everybody this is Lexi with my first, of what I hope many, posts.
This Friday for my birthday I had 10 girls up for a party. First we did our own rendition of Iron Chef (my mom and I were souz chefs doing whatever the teams asked us to do and my dad was the chairman), then we opened presents, played the candy bar game ( white elephant with candy bars), and played some other fun games: Ninja and The Name Game. Here our a few pictures of our excitement.

P.S. our secret ingredient for Iron Chef was bacon, but for desert it was granola

Team One (left to right: Julia, Tiffani, Kaytie, Grace)

Team Two (left to right: Alex, Bella, Emily, Emma)

Rhonda- Julia's aunt one of our guest judges

Brandon- our second guest judge

Julia and Grace cooking

Alex and Bella chopping apples

Emily making chicken and bacon popovers

Team one waits as their food is judged

some of the food made (popovers, apples with cinnamon and sugar, salad, and pasta with ranch and chopped vegetables- the pasta was amazing)

More food! ( bacon wrapped steak, rice, mixed chicken and bacon, and cauliflower with cheese sauce)

Chicken and steak kabobs

Iron chef turned out well, my friends had fun, and the food tasted outstanding. All in all Team two won by one point with their bacon wrapped steak (shown above with sides), chicken and bacon popovers ( also shown above, and berry sherbet on top of cinnamon and sugar apples sprinkled with granola.

all of us posing for a picture ( we are insane- I do know I just called myself insane)

Sorry there we no pictures of Ninja, The Name Game, or The Candy Bar Game, they were fun!!!

Just wanted to say thank you to my friends and family for all the birthday wishes. All of you made it quite special. I want to give a special thank you to my mom for sorting through mounds of pictures to find the ones she wanted and when they were taken, to post my life in pictures. Thanks Mom the time line of my life was great.
