Lilly's 6th birthday pics

Lilly turned 6 back in October. Usually I take her to JC Penney's to get her pics done on or around her birthday. But this year she was in our good friend Sara's wedding as a flower girl in November. I figured you can't better pics than from a professional wedding photographer to document her 6th birthday. I still can't fathom that she is a first grader. She is really a funny, caring girl, trying to do her best to make others happy. Lilly is a great kid, even on her worst days which thankfully are few and far between. And after the events of the last few days, I'm more than happy to have my 6 year old, any way I can get her.  Here are the pics!

Good Bye November

Another month down and only one more to go in 2012. I feel like the kids just got out for summer vacation and here we are with Christmas right around the corner. Soccer wrapped up this month. We had Grandparents Day at Lilly's school. We had an amazing Thanksgiving. I'm already starting to plan Bobby's 5th birthday party (cannot wrap my head around the fact that he will be 5!) which is in early Jan. Things are moving right along for the Lloyd Pack.
 Lilly's first grade picture. Doesn't she look 12 here?!

Bobby's soccer picture. He hated soccer. But of course now that it's over he keeps asking when his next game is. Go figure.

Lilly on the other hand loved soccer and cannot wait to play again.

Lilly won her first award at school! It was a Creativity Award for an art project she did.

I know I already posted this year's Santa pic on Facebook but just had to share it again because it is too funny. Heidi did NOT want to see Santa at all. The only way I could get her to stay in the pic was putting her in the stroller (which I didn't plan to have in the pic!). Loralee was happy to see Santa until I put her on his lap. Then she did everything in her power to escape. Lilly and Bobby were super happy to see him though.
One year they will all love seeing him and all will be smiling. And what will the fun of that be?
