Happy Birthday Lillie

Lillie turned 7 last Thursday. I can't believe she is getting so grown up. She is such a sweet girl and a great sister for her 2 rambunctious brothers. She really wanted a big friend party but we (Ben) decided that we weren't gong to have big friend parties every year. She has had one for the last 2 years so we kept it slightly lower key. We took her and her brothers to Chuck E Cheese and then had family over for cake and ice cream later. Here are a few pics from the festivities.

She got lots of fun stuff, like always but her big gift this year was a bigger bike. I was a little nervous about how she would handle a bigger bike but she did great. Here she is waiting for the big reveal.

All she wanted for her cake was "pink with toys on top" so here it is in all of it's pink and toy glory. Boring I know but there you have it.


In a totally unrelated story Friday night there was yet another storm. This one ended with an amazing double rainbow. Here is one of the pics we took. Sorry we live in the suburbs so there was no shooting around the neighbors houses. But you get the idea.
