not lost, just forgotten...

Here are a couple of pictures from the 4th of July...I totally forgot to post these!! I don't know where my mind has gone these days! We didn't do a whole lot on the 4th because it looked like it was going to be a cool and rainy day...so we headed out to the nearest picture show (by that, I mean movies) and saw Ratatouille with Nana, Papaw, Auntie Mamie, Uncle Matt and baby Carter. It was such a cute movie - Ceili LOVED it!! Anyways, I had to take Ceili's picture in her dress that day, of course! So here they are!

We took Ceili to the pool last Monday, which was an adventure from the start! We only had about 2 hours of "free" time to go, so we planned on being there at 11:30. We got all ready and Ceili was excited, so we drove down there...just to find out they had changed the pool hours!! They weren't going to open until noon, so we had to convince Ceili to go home for half an hour before we could go back down, which was hard to do in itself. Then, once we got down to the pool, we arrived just in time to find out that a goose had decided to go swimming in the big pool and wouldn't get out. Luckily, though, Ceili and I could still get in the baby pool while Daddy tried to chase the goose out of the pool area, which took about 30 minutes...which left us with about 30 minutes before we had to go home. Since the goose had gotten in the big pool, it needed to be shocked and treated before anyone could get in...so needless to say, we hung out at the baby pool for a little while and then decided to go home once all of the big kids started throwing buckets of water across the baby pool. All in all, Ceili had a good time, and that is what matters!!
Ceili LOVES sunglasses, especially Mommy's!! She usually puts them on upside-down, but she actually got mine on correctly this time! She puts them on, says "Mommy, look at me...COOL DUDE!!" Doesn't she look like a movie star?!
