4th of July

We spent the 4th of July weekend out at Pelican Lake. We had fun going on pontoon rides and hanging out with the Vigen family. I even went swimming for the first time in the lake; it wasn't as clean as the pool, but I liked it!

We have had such a fun and busy summer-- filled with weekends at the lake, weddings and landscaping at home. I can't believe its half-way over. I am enjoying being outside, although I don't like the sunscreen that mom applies all the time! I am scooting all over... not quite the normal crawling, but pretty close. I am such a happy girl-- I sure make mommy and daddy smile! :)

HAPPY 4th of JULY!! My outfit that mommy got me last summer before I was born... it fit perfect!

Just picking the grass... I like to stick it in my mouth, which mom doesn't like too much!

Picking the grass again...

Waving the flag... how patriotic I am, even a tear!

I think I should be a "flag girl" for the Goldstar Marching Band... or not.. :)

All tuckered out... taking a nap on the pontoon... this seems to be a pattern this summer

Jake is holding the umbrella for me while I relax... I have him trained already!

What do you know... more grass!

Playing on the pontoon

I am such a good girl!! (When there is no grass around)

Grandpa even let me drive!!

So happy!!

I love my exersaucer... I jump and jump and when I am done I get to play with all these toys!

Reading a book in the tub!

Now I am trying to eat my book!

I love bath time!

Hi Mommy!!!

Don't we both have lovely hats!!

Me and Grandma are the perfect pair... we both love to sit in the shade!
