Happy 4th of July! I love this holiday. Matt and I always enjoy spending this holiday together. It is so fun to share it with Grace now. She is such a ham! Well, this blog is going to be different then all the other blogs because I have a variety of pictures from the week so I thought I would just type a little blurb about each group of pictures. It was such a hectic week with family being here and all of the events we had scheduled. I am so glad it is only Saturday and I still have another day off! Anyway...here are the pictures!

Last night we went to the El Paso Street Fest and had a blast. They had four bands playing along with food and other booths. I got a funnel cake which I love! I was so glad they had them. We listened to Trapt and Evan's Blue. Gracie had a blast. She totally stole the show from the stage when she was out of her stoller and dancing. She loves music. She really did a good job. We were there for about 4 or 5 hours and she was only fussy for about 30 minutes total. I was so proud of her. She also got to see her first fireworks (while we were walking to our car). She didn't like the booms very much. We really had a great time. Today we are just going to hang around the house and BBQ out tonight. We might go for a walk later on to get out of the house. We will see if the weather cooperates! :)

Gracie's first fireworks

Daddy and Gracie being silly! Gracie was trying to give Daddy her bink.

Walking around holding Daddy's hand. I love her outfit! So festive...

Just too precious! Can you believe all the hair she is getting. She even has some curls in the back!

On Thursday we had an Organizational Day at Biggs Park here on Ft. Bliss for my office. It was a picnic with games and the water park was open for the kids. It isn't much of a "water park" it is just a few things for the younger kids. It is nice for kids around Gracie's age. She was able to literally crawl around in the water...she had a blast. Here are a couple of pictures from the day.

Matt holding Gracie's hand while she checking out the scene!

We also found out she loves fried chicken!

I keep telling you that she is majorly into pretend play and now I have the picture to prove it. She was trying to put her baby to "nighty night" by using the extra clothes from her diaper bag as a blanket!

Playing in the car at the outlet mall while waiting for Aunt Debbie and Mikayla.

I loved these books when I was a kid...I am so glad they are still around. The apple was her favorite ride.

For Father's Day, we got pictures taken of Gracie on a Harley at JC Penny's Harley Event. Of course Gracie had a blast playing on the bike. The pictures turned out really good. Here are a few of them for you to see! Grandparents: We only ordered enough for Matt for Father's Day but if you want to order more, just email me and I will email you the link so you can.

This one is my favorite!

She is just too cool!
