Happy 4th of July!

We went to KayKay and Papa's lake house at Lake McQueeney for the 4th of July. It was so much fun! Gracie loved to sit in her baby pool and watch the boats go by. She also loved the boat parade and water balloon war on the 4th. She even tried to throw a few water balloons herself. We thought she might be scared of the fireworks but she loved them and sat so still and watched them the entire time. They lasted for over an hour and finally stopped when the barge caught fire. The Lodge built a huge playground and Gracie had fun playing there while everyone ate dinner. Kids were everywhere and she couldn't get enough of them. The Biggs, Cousin Becky and Auntie Kirsten came to the lake with us. We slept 18 in the house so there was always someone to play with Gracie. She was in heaven and had to readjust when we came back to Dallas. We can't wait to do it all again next year so Gracie can show her little sister the ropes of 4th of July at Lake McQueeney.


Gracie loved playing in the pool with the "Mommy Doll"


Kay Kay bought Gracie a headband but she didn't like wearing it very much!
Water balloon wars on the 4th of July during the boat parade. We went through over 800 water balloons that day. Gracie was trying to squirt the boats Having so much fun!
Daddy was being silly and put two water balloons in my bathing suit. He won't think this is near as funny when I get a little older. Gracie is a Daddy's Girl. Auntie Kirsten came to see me and we got to meet her new boyfriend Matthew.
We liked him a lot! Kay Kay, Kirsten and Gracie watching the boats go by. Gracie waved to every boat!

Kay Kay and Papa watched me while Mommy went swimming.

Everyone had fun swimming after the water balloon wars.


I love the lake!!!!!!
