Summer Time in The Country

Well school is out, but it's just not the same anymore with only John home! He has his own car and really has much to do besides just hang out with us :) he did get 3 awards at the end of the year! On for outstanding Geometry student, one act play and another for reaching some college bench marks!! Anyway I uploaded the pics of the awards to my instagram! Really is awful not having a computer that works out here right now!! Well anyway I hope everyone has a Super Fantastic summer!! Only one more month and my son Randy will be a married man!! So proud of all our kids!! Only good things ahead!!

All grown up...

Today, the little boy I used to nanny, Jayk, graduated from kindergarten. The ceremony was adorable. They sang a song about frogs on a log and instead of doing the choreographed dance Jayk waved at me the whole time. lol. I love this kid. So much. Everything about him is so adorable. From his love of Angry Birds to his obsession with dinosaurs. I'll never get enough of this kid.

Happy Birthday to The Lady who brings the family together!!

Tina, I know you are having a wonderful day because you have so many people in your life who love you and make it possible! Your personality just draws the world to you:) I miss the little time we had together in Amarillo! And it wasn't much it seemed but at least it helped me get to know you better!! We have got to get together more often before you leave us again! I know John really wants to go visit so I will be planning a trip to enjoy your company, and Rich did say he would go visit so just let us know when your not out touring the world :) I'm so lucky to be a part of The Alexander family and even at my craziest insecure moments when I whine and think Nobody loves me you still put up with me!! Next year I will celebrate 10 years with your hard headed, wondeful brother and I hope when we celebrate! I'm not a good party planner but this one is most important to me! Your family is wonderful and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else!! Thank you for creating this blog and being a wonderful sister in law!! Have a Very Happy Mothers day on Sunday also!! Love and miss ya Much!!

Alexander 5

Hey Guys!!

Thought it was about time I posted something (lol)!! I'm Arian married to Darin, mother of Cassidy which i've noticed has posted something twice already (Her Mama needs to catch up!! Lol). Cassidy has kind of filled in some things about our family. We call ourselves the Alexander 5 a cute little phrase Darin came up with. I love that man!!! He's My Heart!!

We spend most of our time together when not at work or school. We love spending time together in the kitchen. Cassidy and I are both Bakers and Darin is an amazing cook also. I think we've sort of made our own traditions with time spent in the kitchen together.

          Chase is Our Middle child and only Boy entering the mid teenage years. New territory for me!!! Thank the Lord for Darins wisdom on that subject!!! He's a sweety and very creative, keeps me on my toes too! HeHe!!
           kamaryn is our youngest child and a sweet blue eyed angel,generous and giving with a quick witty nature. She's always willing to help and is all about spending time with her Daddy (He really loves that!!!).

        Our little crazy bunch is the center of Darin and I and keeps us moving forward. We're always spending time on the lake,cooking together, laughing together and hanging out with family & friends.

        That's our story, looking forward to reading and having a peek at all your lives!!

             Happy Blogging!!

Hey Hey Hey!

I have had SUCH a busy week! But, it's also been amazing fun! This week me and my friend Rachel made a super quick trip down to Dallas for a concert. We left Wednesday and got back home today. It was a little exhausting but super worth it! We went and saw Death Cab For Cutie, who is one of my favorite bands of all time! They're kind of like an indie rock/ alternative sound. The concert was a blast, plus I loved getting to get out of town with my friend. :)

We had so much fun, the band was great and they had an amazing string orchestra.

They also did an acoustic set that I loved!
