Happy Birthday Lilla!

Lilla had a wonderful first birthday on Wednesday.  Her daddy cooked her pancakes for breakfast to kick off the birthday festivities. After breakfast, Lilla opened her presents from us and the rest of the day we played. We went out to dinner with family that evening and Lilla absolutlely loved all of the attention. We arrived here at the lake last night and we are looking forward to having a great weekend with family and friends in celebration of Lilla! I will post pictures from the weekend and the party next week some time.

Fourth of July

For the past 18 years, my mom's family has been gathering at the lake house for the  Fourth of July! It is so much fun to get together with everyone and catch up.  We enjoyed lots of good laughs, delicious food, and one of the best firework shows I have ever seen at Lake Martin. Here are some pictures from our week at the lake!
