Independence Day

Ok- first of all, my fellow bloggers- I can not figure out how to rearrange pictures after I upload them. So I will upload 5 pics, and then I will upload 5 more and they will show up first, and then everything is out of order... if you can teach me how to rearrange after uploading, please send me an email or a comment. I am sure there is some simple way- I just haven't figured it out yet.

I love this picture- it is a little blurry, but Grace looks so sweet looking up at Grandpa.

Gracie's Prayers

Grace says her nightly prayers:

BTW- Grace calls Grandma "Mom" Grandpa "Papa" and Hailey "Sara" and Sara Sara too.

The B family & Stephanie's birthday

Stephanie turned 30!! Picture courtesy of Stephanie's website, courtesy of my finger pushing the button on her camera.

The B family moved to Arizona!! I was able to spend the 29th with them for Lilly's dedication at church. Then we went to our friend Lesley's baby shower together. That same night Drew, Grace and I celebrated with Stephanie F her 30th birthday so the 29th was a busssy day.

Later in the week I spent the night with Stacy at her MIL Bobbie Jo's house. We had a great time. I am sad to see her go- but glad that her husband found a good practice to work for. Much love to the B family! You beeeetttter stay in touch!!

CHECK THIS OUT: Lilly and Grace

Lilly and Grace are so cute together. Grace is only 9 months older than Lilly- but she looks like a GIANT in this video. It is hilarious. Small Cutie Lilly is walking along, and then along comes BIG Cutie Grace. It is funny. Keep in mind that Lilly is in the lower percentile for height ( I think she said 20th?) - and Grace is in the 90th percentile.

Pool party at G&Ds

We had a great time at D&Gs on the 28th. Uncle John and Aunt April watched Gracie while we played volleyball. The girls lost- but it was a close game!
Beautiful Auntie April.

Cutie Grace with Daddy.

Grace and "Uncle Jaw"

ZaZa's birthday June 27th!

We celebrated ZaZa's birthday on the 27th of June at our house. We had a nice "Danitza menu" dinner and April made bread pudding- ZaZa's favorite. Grace called it "April's cake" and is still asking for it!

This is Grace's new thing. If she is REALLY happy she sticks her tongue out and screams.
Grace loves Sophie! Anytime she talks about John and April she says, "Unca, Aprul, and Arf" It is soooooo cute!

The Garden

Ok- remember we planted a garden? And remember Grace watered it everyday for the last 3 months?

Well--- this is our harvest:

"Are you kidding me? You call this a carrot?"
" All of that hard work... "
