moments

 (typical breakfast)

 We've been having some STORMS in East TN recently.... lots of basement flooding, but we're grateful for the rain that so many need!

 Lily is really into her baby dolls right now!  Grandma has gotten Lily some great dolls and Granny has made some beautiful and creative outfits to fit them.  This makes for hours and hours of fun - wardrobe changes and tucking them in for naps, etc. 

 I don't think there is anything sweeter than seeing my child play with the children of my best friends.  It's like that connection that we have always shared was passed down in our children...

 Lily, showing Meemaw her "foot bracelet" (for some reason, she did not like the term "anklet").

 and sharing her balloons. 

 

 Here is Lily with Aunt Martha, Kelsey, and Mary!  We were so fortunate to be able to cross paths with them on I-75! 

 

  Our Porch Party reunion with her friends Wiley, Bryant, Mercury, Ezekiel, and Samson.  I love seeing kids play in the backyard.   Lily missed out on the picture below, but it was such a fun evening with our favorite families!

Random Moments

On the Road

SO. I have much to catch up on! A lot is happening: Jeremy started his second year as a middle school English teacher, Lily and I went to Michigan, and I got a job coaching girls soccer at Jeremy's school! I have SO many pictures from Michigan to post, but so little time... So, just to whet your appetite for Lily pics, here are two from the trip up: Killing time/stretching our legs at a strip mall in OH and Mimi's creative masterpiece! She tied these "worms" around her toes for Lily's enjoyment and kept her occupied in the car for almost an hour! It was amazing. The things grandmas will do...

Coming Soon: Grandma Betty and Lily - Two Peas in a Pod

And PLENTY of Epworth pictures...

Here are some random pictures from this past week - I am behind! Lily and her pigtails :)

Lily and Aunt Rachel, who is moving to Phoenix next week... :(

new pajamas! She is officially out of 12 month clothes, though most 18 month clothes are still a bit big...

eating her first raw carrot.
