Lillie's Blessing Day

After a frazzled week of trying to get my house company-presentable (I felt like it was ready at 11:33 p.m. saturday evening) Sunday morning dawned beautiful because it was Lillie's Blessing Day! It was great to have tons of family and a few friends come!

Lillie got to wear my blessing dress, and I thought it turned out absolutely beautiful! Darrells reaction when I first got the dress from my mom was, "Wow...it's not as old fashioned as I thought it would be." Gee thanks honey! How old do you think I am?? :) We are a happy family!

Grandparents with Lillie

I think my sister captured this one...and needless to say, I love it. I realized about a week ago that nobody has taken any pictures of me with my daughter since the day she was born (and those were only the family photos!) and that made me very very sad. So I cherish this one even more.

Steven loves his little sister :)

Catching up is hard to do...

A week and a half ago now, we had lots of family help us...

Clean....Load up the U-Haul Fawn over the darling baby...

And say good-bye to what has been our home now for almost two years...

A say hello to our new home! It was a busy busy day, but we got everything moved over and ready to make this our new home!

This is the living room...

This is the Master Bathroom...

And here is my kitchen.

Week One in our new house was HORRID! But hey, it's over, we're settled, and Steven no longer asks to "go home" every day. Hopefully once he's over this retched cold, we can start having some real fun!
