Happy Birthday Allison!

Recently, we went down to Newnan to celebrate Lily's cousin, Allison's, first birthday! It was such a great party and so well organized with an Easter egg hung and a wagon for the kids to play in. We apologize again to Mary and Adam for being late--because we had just moved, we were still in chaos and couldn't find anything, etc which resulted in not only us being late, but Lily having to wear 2 different shoes. Luckily the shoes were alike enough that no one noticed. We ate hotdogs and hamburgers, hunted for Easter eggs and had some super yummy cake! Lily thoroughly enjoyed herself. As most of you know, Lily loves to sing, and she includes Happy Birthday in the list of songs she enjoys, only she sings "Happy to you, happy to you" which I think is just adorable! She understands we put people's names in the song and every since Allison's party, she frequently asks me to sing Happy Birthday to "Alice" as Lily calls her!


The hunt is on!!! Lily had a big advantage over all of the other kids except cousin Collin, since they were the only 2 good walking kids! I tried to keep her away from most of the other kids so she wouldn't get all of the eggs, but I think she still got quite a bit more! Oh well...she enjoyed herself so much!!

Lily and cousin Collin!! She loves Collin so much and wants to do and say everything he does. Luckily, he's a very nice boy to her! I love this picture because Lily looks so happy in it!!

Then Collin took a turn in pulling Lily around. He actually did this for a good half an hour! I thanked him when he left, but Mimi said that as they drove away, he asked why Lily never pulled him in the wagon!

The birthday girl!! Allison loved the cake!
