4th of July

I was really excited for my first 4th of July. Daddy told me all about the parades, the cookouts, and the fireworks. To start the day off, we went to a parade. I had a long night so I slept right through the parade - I was pretty disappointed to miss out. After that we went over to our friends house for a cookout and to swim.Playing on my little activity gym before we went to the party. This is my "serious pose", Dad calls it blue steel and then he starts laughing everytime he says it.
This is my confused posed. I really was a little confused why my mom kept taking pictures of me - She's so funny.
Here's me and Dad swimming. I got a new bathing suit that is pretty cool. I liked swimming and I can't wait for next time - Dad said I was gonna get to go under water.
Here I am doing the backstroke. I didn't need any help but Dad insisted. ps - Nice tan line Dad.
This is my mom's friend Ann. She was an orphan growing up but she met Dad's friend Stephen and he took her out of the slums. Dad calls her Yukon Gold but I don't know what that means. Anyways, I like Ann because she lets me swim in her pool and it's always fun at her house. I can't wait to go back to their house pretty soon.
After a long day of swimming here I am resting with Dad. I guess I accidentally slept through the fireworks. I guess I'll have to wait for next year.
Here's me and Dad at the Fort Worth Zoo. Can you see the white tiger in the background? The tigers were my favorite - I really wanted to see a liger but Mom says that those are only in the movies.
