Happy Birthday to Lily!

Six years old... Lily had a great day at school, sharing cupcakes with her classmates at the end of the day and receiving a special birthday pencil and a little key ring to celebrate. And the most exciting part of her birthday school day - she lost a front tooth while she was at school! She was SO excited when she came out of the school building that afternoon! At home she got to open presents, and we had birthday brownies after dinner at Chic-fil-A.

Rollerskates


This looks dangerous!  Lily had fun trying out her rollerskates for the first time. She fell down quite a bit, but since she was basically wrapped up in bubble wrap, she didn't get hurt at all. When she tried skating again a couple weeks later, her feet had grown and barely fit inside the skates. I guess she'll be passing these down to Dylan sooner than expected!

Lily had an early birthday

We had a little birthday party a few days early for Lily while we were still in Iowa. She really enjoyed celebrating her birthday with cousins - something she had never been able to do before.

Jenga -- Lily was very good at Jenga! The tower was really tall before it finally crashed. Here you can see her serious concentration.

Christmas Morning 2012

 We had a very Merry Christmas celebrating Jesus' birthday! Here are a few of my favorite snapshots from Christmas morning. We always have fun with our scavenger hunts! This year the kids had to visit places like the bathtub, pantry, mailbox, and garage for some of their clues. Lily found her Connect 4 game in the garage, and Dylan found his Thor action figure in the laundry room. It's such a fun tradition.
