1st School Homework

Lilee was so excited that she had homework to do. It was an art project that her teacher wanted the whole family do together! So, I took Lilee to Michael's and she knew exactly how she wanted her leaf to be decorated. The main ingredient..... GLITTER!!!













So happy with the finished project!

Kindergarden

Well, my sweet baby girl has now been to kindergarden a full week & the verdict is in.....she LOVES it! She has so many stories to tell everyday & she really likes her teacher. I'm so relived that she feels safe there and is making friends. I'm still a little suprised at my baby girl jumping out of the car & going into school by herself so much like a big girl.....however in my eyes, she will always be my baby.

All packed and ready to go









I think she might be a little excited...



And this is her this afternoon, standing like a pencil. That is how they line up in PE class......she wanted it documented here.

Too Bad vacation is over

This year we went back to Tennessee at the condo that fits us all in one. I think Lilee LOVES to be able to get up in the morning & go right to playing with her cousins! Who am I kidding I like it too!

We are on our way!!



We are finally here!


Opening her present from Aunt Jessica & Uncle Eric


Another favorite of hers is checkers with Uncle Eric




Pizza night was Jessica & Eric's Dinner so they had the kids dress the part...



We LOVE to play games in our family, you name it we play it. We put the kids to bed & it is playtime for the adults! So, my parents sent us an invitation to their game, we had to put together our costumes all by ourselves without letting ANYONE know who you were. Here are the results!!!

My parents night was a game.....


Mom is in mourning & Dad is the Indian Chief


My sister is a cowgirl & Eric is the sheriff


Chuck was the Town's sweetheart & I was a lady of the night


My sister is a wealthy lady & Daniel is an out of towner

Sarah won, she guessed who the murderer was....



We also played Bingo with everyone & guess who was the first winner.........


The Men of the group....




Ready for the pool...

We had so much fun on vacation this year & now we are all counting down the days to our next one. Thank you Gaga & Papa, we had a blast & we love you!

We're back!!

Yep, we are back from vacation. I will post those photos in a few days. But TODAY we received new pictures of Samuel. They are the actual pictures printed in Taiwan! So, I have scanned in a few of the shots, but they are a little pixlated, but I hope you can see that our sweet "baby boy" is a "big boy"

Happy 4th of July

We hope you enjoy this 4th of July & stay safe~

She's 5!!!

Lilee was excited to be turning 5. She wished for a friend party this year AND a family party. So......she got her wish.

Her friend party was at Gatti's & she loved it! A few friends from her class & out of town family that will be on vacation on her family party, came to celebrate with her....

Quick family shot...
