I don't know what it is about shoes, but my kids love them! 

Remember Lilly and the shoes?  Same box too!

Lilly is 4....Finally

 Finally, as in I finally got around to writing about it! 

The family, minus Grant and Hanna, gathered to celebrate and eat!

I wish I coud say Lilly requested homemade blueberry cheesecake, but I totally made the decision for her!

Lilly got her first bike from the Stous grandparents.   She has been all over the neighborhood on it already.  Without a doubt her favorite gift was the handmade sleeping bag from Nana Bobbi.  I am not sure she has slept in her bed since she got it!

Before the Kansas City family left, John lit some of our leftover firecrackers since Avery and Savi can't light them off at home.  

Lilly got a ball glove from Hanna and Grant and seeing it sparked an interest in my dad.  We hadn't played catch in easily 10 years.  

It's seriously one of those things that once you start, it feels like yesterday.

Overall Lilly had a great birthday weekend, and I am so glad it is over!
