There were Circus Elephants

It got to be a long parade

4th of July Weekend

Lillianna enjoying mommy's birthday cake

Swinging

Waiting for her first fireworks. She was not sure what to think of them when they started. Unfortunatly, they did a bunch of SUPER loud ones at the beginning to get everyones attention. The poor girl was literally knocked off her feet by them. It took a good 20 minutes for her heart to stop racing and for her to loosen her death grip on me. I think she still enjoyed them, but would have preferred watching from the car.

That is a caterpiller in her hand. She thought it was pretty cool.

She also enjoyed the stickers from mommy's birthday card. She wore the star on her nose the rest of the day.

4th of July Parade

Lillianna was in a parade for day care again this year. She thought waving her flag was pretty cool!

A visit from Auntie Tina and the cousins

The longest day of the year

We had some friends over on Sunday evening to celebrate the summer solstice with a bon fire. Dispite a few spits of rain we had a great time.

Splishing and Splashing

We finally got Lillianna a pool now that it seems like summer weather might actually be here to stay and it is a big hit!
