Celebrating with Friends!

Lily turned four on August 4th, and had a little party with her friends a couple days later.  Her little buddies came over and played, ate lunch, played some more, and had a pinata and cake.  The girls glommed onto the dress-up, while the boys stayed outside with the trucks.  It was pretty funny to watch them divide and play.  These kids that Lily is growing up with are all amazing.  I can't wait to watch them over the years and see how their friendships develop.  

One of the girls decided to be a doctor and give check-ups to all
the princesses.  It was a princess clinic and it was the cutest thing ever. 

Lily Turns Four!

My parents and Aunt Jan & Uncle Jordan were in town on Lily's birthday, so we had a little family party for her on the actual day, rather than just the usual celebration with the three of us.  A couple of her cousins were at Kevin's parents house that day, so they joined in on the fun, too.  Lily loves a party, attention, and most of all, opening presents.  Best of all, the weather has been incredibly mild for August, so eating outside was incredibly pleasant!

My dad made Lily a jewlery/accessory case that is
pretty amazing.  It came with a bunch of my mom's old
costume jewlery, so Lily is in heaven.

There is a secret compartment, too.  Grandpa Ken
is pretty talented.
