Also if you're really bored and really want to have some great fun while we are away, Lily would really love someone to come and play with her. Her ball is on the fireplace and we have a great big fenced in back yard that she loves to run around in. She is going to be home the whole time just waiting for us to come back, so please go play with her! Just ask the neighbor on the left, they have the key. How can you not want to play with her when she looks at you like this:















And she always wants to come but she couldn't this time:



So please go and play with her! Thanks and look for more post to come and please keep praying for us.
