Hairache
Lila hates having her hair brushed. She would rather eat the barrettes than wear them.
Below are images of a very rare sighting. One morning, she actually allowed me to give her a ponytail! It may have had something to do with the sharp objects I used to distract her. It didn't last long and it hasn't happened since, but I managed to get a picture of her first hairdoo!

Fourth of July 2008
The Hicks' packed up and headed to Flagstaff, AZ to celebrate July 4th. We had a great time visiting with GG & Poppa along with many of their friends who were very excited to see Lila. When I was a kid, the Fourth was one of my family's favorite holidays. We usually went to Grandma & Grandpa's house in Independence, CA. There was always a parade (we even had our own float one year) followed by a huge BBQ and fireworks. GG & Poppa came very close to giving Lila the same experience minus the fireworks. Oddly enough, we didn't really miss them.

A nice old guy let Lila sit in his flag chair.
She was REALLY happy to get these!

A little off topic, but check out the deer crossing the green in the backyard!
And finally, a little movie. We played Bocci Ball later in the afternoon. Lila was the loudest and most spirited cheerleader.Tuesday, June 24, 2008

Big smiles are pretty regular around here... thank goodness!
Father's Day 2008
Momma: "Hey Lila Bean, let's get Daddy something he really wants and loves for Daddy's Day."
Lila: "Daadeeeee? MeeeeOwww? Bye-Bye?"
Momma: "Nah, we have to keep the cat. Let's get him the next best thing."
Easy enough. Daddy's own bucket of beer.
I think it was a nice day for Eric despite not getting a bike ride in that morning. Wednesday, June 4, 2008
Check or Carry-On?
With the airlines charging extra for checked luggage, we must weigh the benefits of buying Lila her own seat on the plane. Her and Bear look awfully comfy here. Hmmm...

Lost Pics from GG & Poppa's Visit...
GG & Poppa came to visit us in April. These are a few pictures we took at the Berkeley Marina. Lila loved this park. There must have been a hundred kites in the sky - of course I don't have any pictures to prove it!

Memorial Day at the Delta
Thank GOD for the Beyer Family! Ever since Eric met Dave (some ten years ago), we have been lucky enough enjoy his little house on the water every summer. We love the Delta! We took Lila for her first time this past Memorial Day weekend. The weather stunk, but we still managed to have a great time. Good company, food, beer and lots of puppies running around. It doesn't get much better. Thanks Art & Linda!!

Not a bad view.
