July and August Pics--FINALLY!

The top picture on the right is when Grammy and Papa came over earlier this summer. We went for a hike by Anthony Lakes and I got tired.

We went to Lincoln City to visit Grammy and Papa after we worked on my uncles' house in Portland. We had lots of fun. We went on a hike (pictured above in the grass), played in the ocean, and even made candles in the sand like Grammy used to do when she was little. I really, really liked the water even though it was very cold. I wanted to go back for more, but my mommy and daddy thought my feet were going to fall off. The hike was called Cascade Head and it was right above the ocean. It was pretty.

The weather was so nice, I even got to play in the swimming pool at Grammy and Papa's.

Uncle Matt was home from Guatemala where he teaches. (Daddy says that's where his real Mommy and Daddy live.) We helped them work on their house in Portland. Uncle Pat is the one on the left, Uncle Matt is on the right.

We also went to Seattle this summer. Again, I LOVED the water and enjoyed being pulled around in my hippo. Grandpa was chicken to go too deep because he was cold. Makayla likes to swim as much as I do, so I can always count on her to go with me.

This is my Uncle Dave and his grandson, Jameson. We had crazy hair after we went swimming. Uncle Dave makes me laugh. He looks like my grandpa.

This is me, playing in the water again! I can't get enough of the water!

This is my friend, Ellie. We were born three days apart. We were at some friends house for the 4th of July. The fireworks scared me, so Grammy and Papa took me home to go to bed. Ellie fell asleep during the festivities! She's so brave! I hope next year I don't freak out as much.

We had dinner at my mommy's cousin's house while in Seattle. They put some pretties in my hair, so I thought I'd pose. Don't I look excited?
