I never want to forget how she loves licking the lid from the Garlic Alfredo sauce...she calls it 'lid licking time'. :)

Picture This...Day 238
I didn't feel well today, so was surprised when Mike brought these home to me. It touched me even more, when I found out Emily told him to "bring home flowers to Mommy, please". When she knew I'd found out, she told me "Mommy, please give daddy all the credit." We are 'so' blessed!

In Emily's History lesson today, we studied about pioneers & how they had to travel in covered wagons. She had to draw 3 things that she would take if she moved to the West in a covered wagon. I smiled when I saw that she drew her Lilly as her first choice. :)

We went out to eat & Emily ordered chicken. When she saw this piece, she got the funniest look on her face & said "Mommy, I think they gave me the chicken's foot." :) She did not want to eat it! :)

Lilly meeting a 'real' Lilly at Pet Smart's adoption day. :) If it hadn't been a boy, I don't know if I could have resisted not bringing him home with us! He was 'so' sweet!

Elliot & Emily chose Krispy Kreme donuts for our slumber party treat tonight. Emily loved watching the donuts go through. When she saw them falling into the grease, she said "I love watching them get their water bath!" :)

Throw back Thursday - Elliot at age 5 (Sept. 2008) on the day he'd learned to write his name.

Avery, lost in thought as she peers out the window at a Vegas casino. Probably wishing she was in one of the pools. :)

Avery wanted to wear this mask everywhere for weeks! She called herself 'Mr. Man'. :)

I was going through my photos & found this one that I took 20 years ago. We'd just gotten a Canon. This was the 'old fashioned' way - no digital then, so I had to scan this in to share it.

Yippee! Rain in Las Vegas, as we drove down our street. Only lasted for about 30 minutes, but we enjoyed every moment!

This guy stands in our kitchen holding a chalkboard so that you can post a menu. Last fall I started having him hold our family rules, & I love it.

One of our favorite spots in our home - our coffee corner. Professional machine, grinder, coffee canisters - my word art. Best coffee in Las Vegas!

The last time Avery was over, Emily was trying to teach her things out of the dictionary, & she wasn't having any of it. She told Emily that the dictionary was pretend & not a real book if it said the things that Emily was reading to her. She then drew this on our chalkboard to prove her dislike for it. I wasn't sure what she had meant by her 'word' that she wrote. You know the sound you make when you stick out your tongue at someone & make the 'flubbering' noise to the recipient of your 'good' manners? :) Well, however you'd spell that sound, that's what she said it said. :)

Today was a special day for Emily She's been wanting to wear one of my Mom's necklaces (her Granny) for so long. Today was the big day - her first time. She couldn't stop looking at it. Mom would be so proud to see her wearing it!

I was going through my older photos today & wanted to share this one from Dec. 2010. I have so many of Emily & her Lilly from behind, & I love it! She was riding in front of us on the Alice in Wonderland ride at Disneyland.
