Merry Christmas!!

This picture is on Daddy's desk at work - he says Lily is doing the Heisman pose with the teddy bear.

Here are a few of Lily's 1 year photos.

What a sweet pea.

Queen of the Mountain!

Lily enjoying the view from the summit of Mt. Everest (aka the laundry pile).

Doing her best to fold the laundry.

Video of Lily enjoying every moment.

Rocking Chair & Being Goofy

Old blue eyes.

She still leans over to hug her dolls and pillows. It's so sweet.

She wanted to drink out of daddy's cup...so she stuck her sippy cup inside. And why not!?

She tries to put any bags or purses over her shoulder.

Reading one of her birthday books from the McFarland's!

Spinning her music.

Sitting pretty!

Here's a funny video of Lily "rocking" in her rocking chair.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving pictures...but it's almost Christmas? I know, I know...one of these days I'll catch up on the posts.

The fellas up bright and early for the Thanksgiving Day Race. Uncle Ken, Brandon, Greg and Rob.

Lily getting some potassium in before her run.

My friend Alicia and I did the Gobble Gobble 5K (much closer to home and a little more baby and dog friendly!)

All bundled up.

Wahoooooooo!

We spent the afternoon with the Cole fam. Great grandma Gigi and Grandpa Ray came up from Virginia to visit! It was so sweet - Lily rested her head on Gigi's shoulder right when she picked her up.

Gigi, Lily, Uncle Trevor, cousin Ethan and grandma!

Cutie.

Hunter and Boomer

Great grandpa Ray!

Don't have a lot of pictures from later in the day, but we went over to the Bea side for Thanksgiving dinner! What a busy but great day!

Balluminaria

We took Lily down to Balluminaria where a dozen or so hot-air balloons are set up around Eden Park. Once it gets dusk they light them up and it's a beautiful site.

Eating a snack on the drive down.

Took a shuttle from the Greyhound lot to Eden Park. Lily's first trip on the big cheese.


What are these awkwardly high pleather seats all about?

The first balloon being inflated.

What night on the town would not be complete without a trip to Skyline?

Water out of the kiddie cup.
