Country Girl

We spent the weekend in Hallettsville last weekend and Jillian loved it! She is such an outdoor girl and loves to get dirty. She picked beans in the garden with Granny and Grandpa...


Played with the potatoes that Grandpa had dug up...
Then helped put the next batch of potatoes in the bucket


She worked really hard at picking up the potatoes and I have a really cute video of her doing it but for some reason it will not load. She was like a little weightlifter - every time she reached down to pick up a big potato she would grunt like it was so heavy!

The next day she helped Granny make cinnamon rolls
Notice how curly her hair is - there is something about Hallettsville that makes it even curlier - it is never that curly here.

And I couldn't resist her first picture with pigtails. I think they are so adorable but I am too much of a perfectionist and she is too much of a wiggle worm to make them work. When I look at them all I can think about is how her hair is not parted perfectly down the middle and they are not even. Maybe when she gets older, she will sit still long enough for me to do it.
