Lillie’s Birthday Party!

We had a little party for Lillie with all her girlfriends from school and church!!  She had a blast!!

Winter Violin Recital

We are extremely proud of our Lillie.

Happy Birthday Lillie

Our sweet baby turned 14 this year. She makes us proud every day. She is so smart, organized, musically talented. She is always so happy and a joy to be around. We love her so much!!  She was snowed in this year, with no school. But we celebrated her the entire day with a little shopping outing,  decorations for a festive birthday, gifts and her favorite meal and chocolate cake. We hope she had a great day!!

Temple trip with the Williams

We always have a good time with the Williams. They took us to the temple and celebrated my birthday. They are good friends!!  How can we be so lucky!!

DC Mayor Innauguration

I was invited to say a prayer at the innauguration of the mayor of DC. At the prayer meeting before the actual innauguration. 

Lillie’s first dance

Lillie has a wonderful time at her first dance. She danced with lots of boys and was really happy with the whole dance. She is such a good girl.

Birthday celebrations

I could not have asked for a better birthday from sweet Kim and Lillie. They took me to my favorite Chinese restaurant to get the famous Peking duck. So delectable. Then we came home to birthday cake and a rendition on the violin and a violin stand to hold my violin and display it. It was beautiful!  This year is off to a great start!!

Family Trio

I asked Kim to pick up the cello again.  We worked on this little trio together.  Not perfect, but pretty good.
