Lillian's 12th Birthday!

September 3rd brought Lil's birthday and my first day of school. : (  On her actual birthday Lillian had her friends over for her party. A day or two later, we had another family celebration.

L to R: Lydia, Lillian, Lucy, Ellie, and Livy---lots of Ls!!

The outside party table, beautifully set by Mom.  Of course the little sibs had to be in the shot. ;)

Good friends

Pitting plums later. Dad got a bunch of fresh yummy plums on the park property.  I don't think Soren's putting safety first into play here with the knives. Yikes!

Lillian's 11th Birthday!!!

Last Wednesday we celebrated Lillian's 11th birthday! Her birthday morning was a little different then other past birthdays, because Mom and Dad took her out to breakfast in town. Then they came home and Dad had to go to work (he was offered last minute to work at a movie shoot in the park!) and Mom threw Lillian a birthday party...playing and swimming at the beach, and later eating cake and ice cream. It was a beautiful day for an outside party!
