Happy Birthday Lillian Leigh!

It's 7:45 in the morning and so far we have cuddled on the couch to watch a movie, had doughnuts for breakfast and opened and now playing with her present (paint that only works on special paper so she can do pictures in the living room). I'm letting her decide everything we do today so there is petting zoo and lots of eating in our future. :) I can't believe she's 4! More posts frm all the celebrations coming soon.

We pulled out of our driveway at noon Friday to go down to Baton Rouge to celebrate Christmas with my side of the family. We got there just in time to help set up for the big family party. We had 17 adults and 5 kids all over for a dinner of ham, fried turkey, au gratin potatoes and a veggie casserole followed with Dad’s pound cake for dessert. It was a group effort of everyone bringing something and it was delicious! Dinner was followed by the kids opening gifts from nana plus their great aunts and uncles.

Shanon and Jeremiah were in town and we wanted to visit with them and spend time with the rest of the family up there too. We only stayed one night to get back for gymnastics and work, but for everyone else, there was a lot of hunting and memories made.  Lillian had to miss Koy’s first tournament of the season, but there was no way she was missing hunting with her dad for that! We got back on Sunday and he came over to tell us about it.  The weatherman had been forecasting snow for a week, but that forecast changed to mostly ice by the time it rolled around. The kids were already out for MLK day, and we were pretty sure Tuesday would be out too since we wouldn’t get above freezing, but they ended up being out through Thursday.
