4th of July 2011!

We went to the fireworks a week ago and I forgot my camera, but she did have a LOVE/HATE relationship with them!  She was terrified while it was happening but has not stopped talking about them since!?!?!?!

We started the day out going to the parade, I once again forgot my camera.

BUT! after the parade I did remember my camera for our trip to the beach!  She did not want to leave the beach and we had SO much fun!  I just LOVE this age! 

                                                              gearing up to go!

                                                                  I'm ready mama!

                                                             Just building a sand castle with daddy!  for hours ;)

                                                            WOW what a great day!

                                                                 sunbathing....as O would say just resting

After the beach daddy decided to take O on her first daddy/daughter date!  (mommy got to clean up all of our vacation mess)
