Lillie's First Day of School

 
 
 

Lillie went to her first day of Kindergarten at John Pittard Elementary today. I can't believe that time has flown by so quickly. She had a lot of fun and even ate lunch there (which is a very big deal for her).

More pictures of Lillie

If your not family then you'll probably be bored looking at this slide show. It's almost all pictures of the many poses Lillie likes to make. I told ya'll that she really does think she's America's Next Top Model.

Photo's from our weekend!

For those of you who did not already know this, Christian is spending her summer working at Dollywood. She's participating in a leadership type camp in conjunction with Young Life called Discipleship Focus She gets to live in a cabin with 7 other college girls, work at Dollywood (and get paid!) and participate in bible study and discipleship activities. She is having a great time and I'm very proud of her. Anyway, we went to visit her this weekend and had a great time.

Our Fourth of July

We celebrated my Mom & Dad's 50th anniversary on the Fourth of July at their home in Paducah, Kentucky. It was a big day long celebration with family and friends.

50 years together

My mom and dad celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on July 4th. We had a big celebration with family and friends at their home in Paducah, KY. The Fourth of July is always a big celebration in my family, but this year was extra special. I am proud of my parents for staying together all these years through the good and the bad. They set an example for me and also for my children. To honor them I made a video of their years together. I hope you enjoy it.

Graduation

 
 
 

Yesterday, Lillie graduated from Pre-school. I can't believe she will be starting Kindergarten in August, but she is very excited about it.

Happy Mother's Day

 
I had a great Mother's day with my family. The kids even went to church with me and let me take pictures when we got home!

 

Today is Lillie's birthday. I can't believe how quickly these last 5 years have flown by. She is growing into such a delightful young lady. I love this girl!

Date Night!

 
 
Last week Joey decided it was time to take his favorite granddaughter out on her first date. He formally asked her and of course she said yes. I don't think he was prepared for the impact this would have on her. She has talked about it everyday since then and she had to go and buy a new outfit which she picked out herself. She found a frilly dress with gloves and purse to match. She called him from the mall to see if dancing would be involved (her exact words! LOL). He told her that dinner and a movie would probably be a better idea. So,they just left to have dinner at Chef Wangs before catching Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who! at the movies. I think they were both pretty excited and I can't wait to hear all about it.

 
She honestly thinks she's America's next top model!
