Presents and Cake


We took Lex to lunch for her birthday because she didn't want to commit her evening to dinner with the family. I will now lovingly refer to her as Grandpa Tilley because she is always looking for something better to do, so nothing is EVER a firm commitment with this kid, she will throw her plans away as soon as something better comes along! I can't even get her to plan her own birthday party with friends this year because she wants to make sure nothing else exciting is happening!





We came home and let her open her presents from us. All she wants these days is clothes, clothes and more clothes... sometimes jewelry and perfume... truly a girl after my own heart.







She even gave us a little fashion show! Here she is rocking some light wash flare jeans and a western inspired red flannel shirt....



and now looking beautiful in some navy blue knit "skinny jeans" and an over sized wrap cardigan with an embroidered gray camisole... damn, I love a good fashion show!





Then we were off to her basketball game on the recreation league, of which I took no pictures, but she did have a beautiful little lay up towards the end of the game that I wish I would have videoed... dang it! I think they won by 7 or 8 points and so far are undefeated.

It will be interesting to see what she decides to do tonight because last night she was so busy making plans and waiting around for something fabulous to come along that she ended up watching a movie with me and Nate! We are also considering eating her ice cream cake from Coldstone without her... is that so wrong?


She decided to invite her boyfriend over and Liv went down to give her one more present and tried to get a picture but as you can see they evaded this attempt! I told her if she wouldn't let me take a picture that I might have a spy cam installed... she is not impressed. She did give her little sis a hug though after the picture didn't turn out!

I would definitely eat the ice cream cake without her. Heck, if I could, I would eat it without ANY of you!

We did! What can we say, we are total jerks!

BOYFRIEND!? I didn't know there was a boyfriend.

What the? DOH!

The boyfriend thing scares the HELL out of me! I have had a lengthy discussion with his mom and we have each other on speed dial which is so embarrassing to both of them!

Dang Lexi you are growing up too fast. We still have some unflattering pictures of her. Does the boyfriend blog? It has been awesome to see these grandchildren develope and change over the years. Thank goodness old age diminishes the memories. Well almost. We still remember some of those teenage years and could tell Lex a few things but alas we will resist the temptation.

I don't an unflattering picture of Lexi could exsist! Your girls are GORGEOUS! I can't believe you grown up they are! I wish Liv would have been successful with the picture...I would love to see this boyfriend guy! In some ways it's crazy that Lexi has a BF, but I'm not surprised! I'm sure the boys were knocking down the doors as soon as you got there! Glad she had a Happy Day! And that Ice Cream Cake looks to die for!
