Drumline

I took Lily to a small neighborhood festival about 15 mins drive from our house in an area called Pine Lake. The local High School drumline came out to support the festival and Lily was in heaven with all the music! The first clip shows a little of what we were watching and the second is Lily dancing.

Lily will help you Mummy

Lucky me, Lily loves to help, especially when it comes time to feed Paddy. If I try to do it myself, she says "NO MUMMY, Lily will help you". What a great little helper.

Is that you Peppa?

Here we are at Southern Belle Farm to ride the train, visit the pumpkin patch, slide down the slide, jump on the bouncy toys, find our way through the hay maze.....or just stare at the pigs! She couldn't take her eyes off the pigs to turn around to say 'cheese.

Marty-bug, I think Lily-bug may be following in your trotters with a little obsession!

She did however finally leave the pig pen and came across the chicken coop, and was so impressed with how the chicken was walking up the plank into it's house. She thought it was the funniest thing she has ever seen.

Pony Ride

My friend Sara & I took Lily & her daughter Meghan to the Botannical Gardens for a special children's Halloween event the weekend before last. There were lots of fun things for the kids to do, even pony rides!

Of course I had to sign Lily up for that, even though at first she said she didn't want to. Meghan did want a go, so we while we waited for Meghan's turn to come up, Lily seemed to warm up to the idea, so when we got to the front of the line, she was happy to have a go. She seemed like a natural to me - I was of course terrified she would fall off, but she didn't even wobble!
