I just LOVE her! :)

This is how my girl is taking a nap today!  :)

She asked to wear her sunglasses to bed.  I figured she would play with them for a little bit and I would go in and find them on the floor.  Nope!  It makes me laugh just looking at the picture!

Whew! Long time no post!

Lillia and I just got home after being gone for almost 2 weeks!  We spent time visiting our families as well our friends back in Iowa.  Brandon joined us for part of the time, and the other part of the time he was working or traveling for work.  We had a great time, but it feels good to be home and sleeping in my own bed!  I will let the pictures speak for themselves!.....

 Chasing bubbles at Grammy and Papa's House in Omaha!

 Visiting the Omaha Zoo!  :)  She LOVED seeing all the "aminals!"

 

Relaxing at the campground with aunt Molly

 Lillia loves Baby Cade! Had a bbq at Lubbers for the 4th.

 At the 4th of July Parade!  Man, it was hot!  But this girl loved gathering lots of candy!

 Picked raspberries in Natalie's garden!
