Lydia's Birthday

The obligatory pose for the camera

A few weeks ago we celebrated Lydia Eileen Lehman's 7th birthday. Lydia has always insisted on party hats for her birthday and we would always oblige and wear them while we ate our meal. This year, Lydia opted for one big hat and so she was the only one that got to wear it. As you can imagine, the rest of us (especially the adults) were really disappointed not to have a hat to wear.

It is so amazing to watch your grandchildren grow and mature. Even though Lydia still has boundless energy and continues to love anything outdoors, squishy, or furry, she also enjoys crafts and quieter activities as well. Her smile lights up the room and her big brown eyes sparkle beautifully.

We enjoyed a birthday meal with Lydia and her family and Kristen's parents. We always look forward to these celebrations and are so glad to share these milestones with them.

Happy smiles

Here is the birthday video. Lydia surprised us at the end of it by not blowing out her candles. It was pretty amusing.

And she finally blows them out :)

Love this girl!
