Lily's Birthday

Lillian Marie Taylor is now officially a two year old. Nearly her entire family was present as she tore through gifts, played with her cousins and ate birthday cake. Though it rained cats and dogs outside there was plenty of fun to be had at the Willis' house on Saturday! We had a chance to visit with the Dillows, whom we haven't seen in ages. Their beautiful family has grown from three to five since our last visit! Though we've watched their daughter Maddie grow into a beautiful young lady through her mama's blog, it was quite a shock to see how big she has gotten! Dillow daughter number two, Gracie, is no longer a baby, but a tornado of giggles and Gracie hugs. We didn't have a chance to visit with the latest Dillow addition (Bridget), due to naptime...:( Our only regret of the day was that we couldn't share our fun with the Persheys (Lily's Aunt, Uncle and soon-to-be new cousin). It's been more than a year since we have seen Katherine! We send our love and prayers to the new parents-to-be! Eating birthday cake at age two is much more graceful than at age one! She didn't wear a single bite this time:)

I promised a copy of this photo to all parents and grandparents with children involved and so here it is! Sorry, I ran out of time to photoshop it, but it still cracks me up!

Ring around the rosie....what a beautiful moment! These two young ladies have plenty in common besides being cousins. Maddie is a wonderful big sister and will one day have to give her younger cousin pointers on what it's like to be the oldest and wisest sister!

* Anyone who would like photos emailed to them may post their email address and I will happily oblige!
