Back to blogging!!

Time to go back to blogging. I'm taking a FB break (indefinitely at this point) so I told my parents I would keep up my blog so they could keep up with Lexie bug and all the funny things that she does on a daily basis. I can't believe summer is almost over! We have done some fun things around here this summer. I just completed 6 hrs of summer school (to stay ahead) and I'm glad to say that I pulled off 2 A's to add to my transcript. Hard work but oh so worth it. Here is what we have done in pictures. I ran my first 5K a couple of weeks ago. I loved it! Lexie and Ryan came to support me and they had fun too. We spent many weekends at Splash kingdom where Lexie learned to swim (see video below). Those season passes were the best money we spent all summer. We made a visit to Hot Springs. We took our first dancing class in which Lexie LOVED. We start fall dancing in 2 weeks. This week is our last week at summer dance class and parent observation week. I can't wait to see her dance. She LOVES it! Lexie loved the Olympics (mostly swimming and gymnastics) and has asked to do gymnastics again this fall. I don't want to drive to the other side of town so we put her in a class at Bossier Olympiad. Here is the leotard she picked out yesterday. She is so excited to start back on Monday! My sister is officially moved into her new house in town and we have spent everyday together for the last week. I have enjoyed it so much. Love being so close. I'll close this post with a Lexism (for those that just love them. Yesterday we passed the gymnastics facility. Here is the conversation. Me: "Lexie, that's the new place you are taking gymnastics. It's called the Bossier Olympiad". Lexie: "Yay!! I'm going to be in the the Olympics". ME: "Well I don't know about that but that is just the name of the facility. It's not really the Olympics" Lexie: "Well if you do really good they put you on TV. Then it's the Olympics. I'm going to do that one day". Love this kid!
