Asher and I started talking about the first time we have done different activities.
Our List:
• When we were students, Asher took me to see George Strait, Tim McGraw, and Faith Hill.
• We went to our first archaeology site in U.S.--Cahokia Mounds, outside of St. Louis.
•We went to our first horse race-- Iroquois Steeple Chase.
•We purchased our first brand new car together.
• Our first NASCAR race.
•We traveled to Vermont for graduation at Dartmouth (New Hampshire)
•We went white water rafting on the Ocoee river together.

Cow Girl

A friend found this rocking horse and Lilia loves to ride! She can climb on and off by herself. She is still getting use to the rocking part.

Helping Mommy with the Baking!

Lilia helped me with the bread dough. We also made ginger snap cookies and she loved licking the spoon. She loves to watch and help me cook.

Learning some HTML......sort of!

I know my brothers are laughing right now.  I did take a class in college on HTML and such but I did not listen or pay attention.  I am figuring out a few things.  I added those tabs all by myself.  Well, I used a great blog to get some answers.  I tried one other thing but he got over my head.  I tried teaching a little to my elementary students but that lesson plan went out the window! 

Silver Shoes

Lilia saw these shoes and wanted to wear them. She is all about shoes right now!

What a Peaceful Sight--Looking at an Angel

It is always wonderful to see my little girl!! She is so perfect in every way! She is opinionated and vocal in everything--and yes, she will let you know when she is displeased. And then you see her sleep and realize she is a perfect angel. (Recognizing, of course, the tornado will erupt the moment she wakes and starts burning all that energy again!). We just love her so much.

Princess Lilia

I saw this look on the way home from church. This is her tired/hungry look and about to fall asleep because I am in the car look! I pulled in the drive and stopped and took a quick picture.

Trying on Dance Shoes

I know this is not a great picture and Lilia's face is blur. She has been trying on shoes for a few weeks. She loves walking around. She loves our flip flops.

Banana Ice Cream

I tried a new recipe tonight for dessert, Banana Ice Cream. Take out those brown bananas that are frozen and peel them. Place in food processor or blender and mix. I used my food processor and the bananas turned out a good consistency. I thought it would be gritty. We put chocolate syrup on top and wow it was great! I found this recipe while browsing the internet for non dairy ice cream. Lilia loved the banana ice cream.
