Gotta love summer...

Gotta love summer... Baseball, Swimming, 100 degree weather.... everytime we tell Lilly we're going somewhere she say 1 of three things: "shopping?!" "Walmart!!" or "It's too hot." LOL. Notice that two of those mean shopping. I seriously think I've turned my daughter into a shopaholic. She loves to go shopping. It's one of her favorite things to do. We went to eat the other night for a church function and it was pretty late and we get into the car and Lilly says "Walmart?" I laughed and said "you want to Walmart right now?" Of course she nods her head and repeats back "Go to Walmart right now." I actually did have some things to get so we did go to Walmart that night. And I wonder where she gets it from... :)

So Logan and I have friends who own a timeshare and they were able to get a weekend stay there and invited us to come. We all had a blast. Lilly loved being in the condo. She ran around pretty much the whole time. The pool area was really nice and had a pool just her size. Saturday morning/afternoon was spent in the pool. She throughly enjoyed herself and the mini vacation.














On Monday nights Logan has been playing softball with our church. Lilly loves to go to the games and sadly most of his games have been past her bedtime but there have been a few that we've been able to go to. Our friends Makyla and Brandon have joined us for most of them. If Brandon is there Lilly knows he will bring sunflower seeds and will stand there waiting for him to open some seeds so she can have some. It's pretty funny. When we first started going Lilly had a hard time understanding that she couldn't go out and play with Daddy. She kept saying I want to play too.






















Well, for those of you who haven't heard, I will be traveling to Russia soon with my aunt and uncle and their son. It's been a much awaited trip and I'm very much looking forward to it. I just know that I will miss my hubby and daughter very much. Please pray for us as we go and for it to go fast so I can get home to see them. Pam and Brian are adopting two little girls so also pray for the court to go well over there. I am not sure if I have time in the next two weeks before I leave to post again, so if I don't you will see a new post after the end of July!

Melanie and Logan sure enjoyed your posting on Lilly. She is such a sweetie. Lois says she looks like her dad, but I see both of you in her. We are so proud of our grandaughters and their families, I'll just say you have made us proud. Have a great trip to Russia and hurry back with my grandaugthers. We will be praying for your safe return.

I want you to know that we visit this site very often. Checking on that precious darling Lilly. What a good looking young lady. I love it when she wrinkles up her nose. My, she is growing up fast. Prayers for you on the trip to Russia. Love you guys.

Wow, such a change in growth in such a short time--from Easter to now. What a cutie! I see the shirt "My heart belongs to Grandma", well, Grandma's heart is taken too! I agree with Aunt Sarretta, she's irresistable with that big grin and winkled nose. (and those ponytails!)
Love, Grandma B
