Baby You're a Firework

Amelia had a fantastic 4th of July celebration filled with music, dancing, snow cones, pool time, and a visit from her cousins. Philadelphia is the best place in the country to celebrate July 4th and we took advantage of every minute of it!

 Happy Birthday USA!

 Dancing at the 4th of July Jam on the Ben Franklin Parkway.
 
Amelia got to hear Ne-Yo rehearse his performance and she loved dancing to every minute.
 
Amelia's new favorite singer, Ne-Yo.
 
Here's Amelia showing off her dance moves at America's birthday party.
 
Amelia and Dad hugged and made up after a cut throat game of Frisbee.
 
 Then she got some patriotic face paint.
 
My little firecracker!
 
We had so much fun in the photo/video booth.

For dessert Amelia and Mom made American flag strawberry shortcake.
 
And Amelia had her first ever snow cone. Yum!
 
 
On Saturday Maddie, Penelope, Aunt Casey, and Uncle Tommy came for a visit. The cousins had a wonderful time playing together at Sister Cities Park and in the Logan Square Fountain.

 What beautiful little girl.

 Big, big smiles.
 
Oh no you didn't Uncle Brian!

 







On Sunday we celebrated Russ' first Birthday at Smith Playground. Everyone had a fantastic time on his big day.

Happy birthday little man.

  1. Love the photos! Your girl is gorgeous as ever and you look like you really have fun with her. I have been off of FB for over a year and seeing your photos is definitely a good reason to return! And the new baby Penelope is a doll! Warm wishes to your family.
