Lexi Lu Turns 9

 Yesterday was Lexi's birthday.  Because Covid is still an issue we didn't do a friend birthday party.  I tried to do everything she asked for.  Grammy Raddon came and took her to breakfast at Black Bear Diner.  Lexi stayed in her pajamas all day (per her request).  She ate romin for lunch.  During the day she requested to go swimming, so I called my friend Ruki and she was able to go over with Alegra and swim.  We had chilly cheese dogs for dinner with homemade buns and chili for dinner and homemade chocolate cake to sing to Lexi.  We watch the BFG, another request to watch a movie on her birthday.  She opened presents throughout the day.  Some of the things she got: a new iPad mini, a Jazz jersey,  a basketball whiteboard, new basketball shoes, and a Disney Stitch stuffed animal.  I tried to spoil her!  



Started out the day seeing her big balloons!


Opened Cruz and Alegra's gift to her first thing in the morning.  
Love these three!
Then grammy came over to take her to breakfast.  So happy they could spend some time together just one on one.  Grammy came in to watch Lexi open the gift from her.  It was an iPad mini.  Shawn and I went in on this gift too since it was pricey.  Because she didn't have a party (the last 2 years due to Covid) we went a little overboard on presents :).  
Cruz was cute and played battleship and twister with her.  

In the afternoon Lexi FaceTimed Grandma Frye and opened up her gift.  It was a Mike Conley jersey, a jazz player.  
Then our good friends, the Hansens brought this cute yard sign over and a puzzle for Lexi. 
Opened more presents!

Swimming at Ruki's.  She had this sign out for another boy but we took advantage of taking a picture in front of it.  Ruki had  present for her and helped celebrate Lexi!

Dinner of homemade buns, homemade chili, and hot dogs.  


Cake time!
We can't get enough of this 9 year old!  We love her so much!!
Our neighbor Carrie brought over this fun racket set today for Lexi.  Thanks to family and friends I hope Lexi felt loved and spoiled.
