In my "garden" I have 2 Hydrangea's. One we have had for 3 years, and the first year it bloomed with 2 flowers, the last two years NOTHING, I had even forgotten what color it was! This years is a WHOLE different story!

This was when it was first blooming & I just had to take pictures of these beautiful blooms because who knows how long it will last & oh yea it is BLUE!


This is Lilee beside it so you can see how BIG it is!


Then for Mother's Day Chuck got me a pink one because he knows that they are one of my favorite flowers! I was so happy when it started blooming!

I love these big beautiful blooms!


Now, a month & some later..............


YIPEE!!!!

After taking pictures of the flowers we decided we would blow bubbles, one of Lilee's favorite things to do....correction...one of Lilee's favorite things for MOMMY to do!







Oh how I love this little girl!

I'm pretty sure fun was had by all! Lilee's party was so much fun & I think she celebrated her little legs off :D

Of course Friday was her birthday, but she didn't really care that much. We did let her open "3" presents since it was her actual birthday, but she honestly was like 'Okay, great presents, except for a A*bby Cad*aby backpack I got at T*arget in the dollar section! Now THAT was a huge hit & she absolutely wents nuts for it!






Now, Saturday morning a different story! The very first thing she said to me when she got up was "Today is my birthday & I'm having a party" She was SOOOOOOO excited!! A BIG thank you to my sister & brother in law for letting us use your house for the party, & for all your help!! Thank you to both our families that made her special day even more special! She loved every minute of it, and by the end of the day, she was EXHAUSTED!! (Chuck & I thank YOU for that as well) hahahahaha


Telling Amber all about it!!


Okay, I think she MAY have her picture taken a tad too much, this was not posed, she did this all her self...well in my defense she also thought of the pose for this picture as well....

Cousin Sarah getting Lilee ready to open presents!!!

Has anyone seen Lilee??


There she is


She is either bored or being shy about all the singing


Oh, she is starting to perk up


Honestly, have you ever SEEN such a happy birthday girl!


Now, that puts a smile on her face!

Okay, I just want everyone to know that not EVERY picture I take of the princess is perfect every time (I know hard to believe), but we take SO many pictures & I just post the ones that make the cut.....below is a TERRIFIC example of the anatomy of a photo shoot......











At least everyone is smiling!!


Hanging out with my cousin Ty.




Apparently, bubbles are hysterical!


We just love this little monkey so much! She is the most wonderful, sassy little thing & we can't wait to see what the year of being 3 brings!

THE END!
