Lily is 5!



Lily climbed into bed with us at 4:43 a.m. Since it was her birthday, we let her stay there. Doesn't that look comfortable? She kicked Aaron in the face twice and "snuggled" right up to me. Cozy.

Good morning, sleepy head! Lily opened her fun presents bright and early before her favorite breakfast: crepes and bacon.

Smooches from Grandma. Carter loves Grandma so much. He loves to read and snuggle with her. We miss Grandpa Ford and wish he was here too.

Lily had a horse party. She especially likes unicorns and pegasus. This happy horse came to Lily's party and the kids got to ride it.

Lily's friends were so cute. I loved watching them run and play together. It was fun to see them interact. We did a couple of relay races and they didn't exactly get the concept. When the first runner passed the horse to the next runner, instead of running immediately they waited for me to say go again. So the teams ended up tying both relays. Those kids are so cute!


Yeehaw! Run, girlies!

Pin the tail on the unicorn. Anavey (not pictured) has x-ray vision. She put the tail in exactly the right spot!

Birthday cake for my girl. She blew out her five candles one at a time.


Lily chose Red Robin for dinner. Surprise, surprise. ;)

We told Aunt Julie we would email some fries to her in Taiwan. These ones are for you, Aunt Julie!

Carter thinks Red Robin is a place to eat fries and climb walls.

Happy birthday, Lily! Happy birthday to you too, Jordy!!
