Lily's 5

And Lily is 5. My little blue-eyed stylish girl is 5. The little girl who wants to wear a dress everyday, have her nails painted, but still cuddle on my lap is 5.

Here is her birthday dinner. This year Lily asked for Mac and Cheese and watermelon. Jack insisted that we had some meat, so she said some cow would be fine.
Here she is with Ada Grace, her "barbie friend", getting one of the 8 barbies she had to have. The girl is nutso about Barbies... tattoo barbie, Rapunzel barbie, three musketeer barbie, Hannah Montana barbie, hair salon barbie, cherry red Ferrari barbie, the very first barbie, and cheerleader barbie.

And then on the other hand she is such a tomboy. Here she is with her pals at her birthday party at the Ranch. When we were on the wagon ride I asked her if she was having a great time. Her reply, "This is totally AWESOME!"

How AWESOME it is to have her in our lives. She has the brightest spirit and the most infectious laughter. (She thinks farts are sooooo funny.) I pray that she continues to grow and be beautiful on the inside. Oh what fun this year will surely bring!
