Summer's Unofficial Start

Swimsuits...
Sprinklers...
Being out in the yard...

Kool-aid...
Yep, summer has arrived at our house!

Cousins

Lilly loved playing with her cousins out in the yard. Too bad baby Brady slept right through the fun!

First Trip to the Zoo

Lilly got over her case of tonsillitis (yuck!) just in time for us to have some family time at the Fort Worth Zoo. We had a wonderful time together. Lilly especially liked the turtle she saw eating a big piece of lettuce. Now if you ask her what a turtle says, she'll tell you, "num num!" (Of course, what else would a turtle say?)

Komen Tarrant Race for the Cure

We got to celebrate JoAnn's victory over breast cancer on Saturday at the Race for the Cure. In all, Team Hallelujah had 12 members, and 3 in strollers. We had such a great time!

Brusha, brusha, brush-a!

Lilly loves to brush her teeth with her Elmo toothbrush. It's so fun seeing her develop good, healthy habits!

Happy Birthday, Frank!

Lilly and Memere were happy to help Daddy open his birthday present. Then we surpised him with a sushi dinner... and for the record, Lilly is not a fan of sushi. (Guess she takes after her mom!)

Beautiful Weather, Beautiful Girl

Since it's been so nice outside the last few days, I decided to try to capture some of our backyard fun on camera. I probably took a million shots, but here are the 3 best ones.
My happy girl.
