The Holt's Visit

We were so excited that Corey, Emily, Carter, and Baby Alex all came to visit yesterday. It was fun to see some of our El Paso friends and finally get to meet Baby Alex. We miss them already!

Friends before they were born and finally getting to meet. They seemed to hit it off!

Third Birthday and First Day of Preschool

Yesterday was a very busy day for Lillie. She celebrated her birthday and started preschool. For as long as she has been aware of dropping Connor of at school, she has wanted to go too. Finally her turn came, and she couldn't have been more excited. As soon as we saw the school from the car, she began yelling, "Ms. Jen, kids, here I come!" This went on over and over again until I stopped the car. She proceeded to run through the hallway and into her classroom where she threw down her backpack and lunchbox not even thinking about telling me good-bye.

To celebrate her birthday we took her to Chuck E Cheese's, at her request. Afterward, we meet Grams, Papa Bill, Kara, Keith, and Annabelle back at our house for cake and presents. What a wonderful day!

The famous "first day of school" picture.

She was off with the other kids before I had a chance to snap a picture. She is the one in the pink.



It's time to start taking cake decorating classes!
