Fun at the Fair

I spent the afternoon at the fair today.   I started the rides on one of my favorites, "Magic Carpet Ride."


Nana watched with a big smile on her face.



I rode the carousel 5,247 times.   Okay.  Only 5,000.



A face painting artist painted a beautiful unicorn on my cheek.



It had a chance to dry while I slurped my vanilla milkshake.



Nana and Daddy checked out the vendors.



Walking and posing with my beautiful face art...



I rode an adorable pony named "Franky."



I loved him, and I'm pretty sure he loved me!



I think I'll keep him!



I'm a cow....



Remember I said I rode the carousel 5,000 times?   Here I am with Daddy on ride number 4,000.



I saw the mama pig and her snuggly piglets.



I'm a sheep...



Daddy liked this hen.  "Large Marge."



How cute is this "Flower Power" car?



Carousel ride.  Again.  But seriously, look how happy I am!

Driving Range

After soccer camp, I went to the driving range with Daddy.   I have my own set of clubs with a cute piggy as a cover for my driver.



Daddy taught me everything I know about golf.



When we go to the driving range, we like to share a small bucket of balls.



Watch out, Tiger Woods!




Soccer Camp

This week was my soccer camp and I LOVED every minute of it!




Warmup laps with Coach Cocoa puffs.



Yeehaw!



Blue scores a GOAL!!!



Coach gives me five...



Blue team had two goals and one of them was mine!



"Awesome job" from Coach Cocoa puffs.



Best week ever!

My BFF and I. Then and now.

When Ellie and I were babies, our moms dressed us alike and took pics of us on a blanket at the lake.  I was 7 months old and Ellie was 3 months old.




Here we are, 5 years later, and our moms are still dressing us alike and making us pose for pics on the blanket at the lake!    Although this time, we couldn't stop giggling.




Friends forever!




Daddy's Birthday

Daddy turned 45 a couple weeks ago.  I picked out this lovely cake with purple writing.  Purple is Daddy's favorite color.  He is a Husky, after all.



I love my cousins!




Getting ready to help Daddy blow out his candles.  Happy birthday, Daddy!


Montana Vacay Part Deux

After Fairmont Hot Springs, we drove up to the Flathead Valley.  I met Aunt Pat's new puppy, Annie.  Isn't she the cutest?



Swimming with Mommy and Aunt Pat in Flathead Lake.  



I spent a day at the waterslides with my cousins.



Daddy and I rode the go-carts.



I stayed home with Nana while Mommy and Daddy hiked to Avalanche Lake with Auntie Barbie and Lauren.



Uncle Eric played "Rock-Paper-Scissors" with me.



We had a little service for Papa where we laid his ashes to rest.   My cousins and I let go of blue balloons.



Here's the whole group who came to remember Papa...


Montana Vacay Part 1

July was a fun month for me!  We went to Fairmont Hot Springs in Montana.



I spent lots o'quarters racing on this horse in the game room!  Yeehaw!



Cousin Lauren painted my fingernails.  



I had lots of piggyback rides.  Piggyback ride number 1 with Lauren...



Piggyback ride number 2 with Tom....



Piggyback ride number 3 with Auntie Barbie...



I swam in the warm hot springs pools.



Uncle Eddie read to me from Genesis each night.



And I went mini golfing with Daddy and Lauren.   Soooo fun!
