Friday traditions and baby goats.

As you all may know, Lillian and I pack up and head to a tiny little town to visit nanny and papa just about every Friday. Papa always buys us lunch at an old gas station turned restaurant and we get the same thing. every. single. Friday.

Anyone who truly knows me knows how much I cherish my time with my grandparents. I am blessed to have them only 15 minutes away! I hope they can see how hard I try to be the best granddaughter I know to be. If my other grandparents lived closer I can only hope we would have the same relationship. They have been given the gift of watching Lillian grow from week to week and watch me grow as a parent. They spoil us rotten, and we are not a bit ashamed of it. :) We don't only see Nanny and papa, we always get to see Poppy (my dad) on our visit to Hickory Tavern as well.  Poppy always takes Lily to the gas station and buys her candy and I always get a lottery ticket, I always loose and dad always wins at least 3 dollars. Lucky duck.

This week we got to meet a new member of the family and Lillian and I lovingly named him Roger. (We aren't even  positive he is a he.) But we think he loves his name anyways.

I see ALOT of my personality in Lillian. My love and compassion for animals for instance. Lillian is not satisfied unless she has paid every animal she comes in contact with some attention. She loves feeding the chickens and goats.  She has the biggest most tender heart and this mama is so filled with pride every time I see her love on one of God's creatures. She may look like her daddy, but she has some characteristics of her mama, and that my loves, is the best feeling in the world.

 Enjoy my Friday in pictures.


Roger is so tiny.
