I found a good deal on a table and I painted it for Lily Grace and my mom covered two chairs for her. She loves her new table. She also discovered how to have a tea party. Every time Lily Grace sits at her table she says, "tea?" Lets just say I have had my share of tea for the summer. She also likes wearing her tutu. We have had a lot of fun this summer. I am looking forward to having a real tea party for Lily Grace and her friends. Amber, you are going to have to give me some tips on how to have a fun, creative tea party.
Lily Grace posed for a photo on July 4th.
We started our summer off with VBS. This year I didn't work in the preschool VBS. I got to be a part of the skits each night. I wore a blond wig each night. At first Lily Grace did not like me in the wig. I let her try it on. Travis said that Lily Grace in the wig reminded him of the part in E.T. when he was dressed up and hiding in the closet. Pretty funny. So what do you think? Does Lily Grace look good as a blond?
We had a nice 4th of July. We went to my mom and dad's house. We went swimming, ate and of course watched the fireworks. That was a late night for Lily Grace. You can tell when you look at the picture of Lily Grace and Landry sitting and waiting for the fireworks to start.
Lily Grace and Landry had a lot of play dates this summer. Don't they look cute in their tutus?
Lily Grace is very interested in being mommy's helper. She likes to unload the dishwasher, take the clothes out of the dryer and help with our meals. It is so sweet. I wonder what age it is that children stop wanting to help with household chores.
My wonderful sister treated my mother and I on a trip to Marco Island in Florida. It was beautiful. We just sat by the pool relaxed and read. I finished a book and got half way through another book. I loved it. I never get the chance to just read all day long. I have always wanted to see blue water and white sand. My sister got me the white sand. Maybe one day Travis will get me my blue water!
Lily Grace stayed with grandma Delores while I was away. She had fun. I think she wore poor grandma out!!
ahhhhhhhh... a beach sunset. Isn't God amazing? He knows how to put on the best shows!
The three girls out for a night on the town!
Lily Grace enjoyed swimming in her little pool at home. It is not as cool as Me-me's but, it will do!
We enjoyed the ocean the first night we were there!
Travis and I took Lily Grace to feed the ducks! She had so much fun throwing the food to the ducks. The turtles liked the food too! Lily Grace was really excited to see the turtles. A Turtle is one of Lily Grace's favorite animals right now.
We went to a splash pad in Grandview with Landry and Grace. I thought Lily Grace would love it. She did not care for it. Luckily there was a park nearby and she enjoyed playing with her friends in the park and having a picnic.
We went to Aunt Amy's house for a swimming party and dinner. Lily Grace loves spending time with her cousins. She wasn't too sure about the pool at first. Travis kept throwing the girls in the water. They would scream with joy. Lily Grace did not like that! She was afraid to go near Travis for a while. She finally enjoyed time with him in the pool. As you can see swimming took it out of all three of the kiddos. They enjoyed some time relaxing in front of the t.v.
