flash, fireworks, and family

Okay, so much time has passed since our last post about Cali. Needless to say, there are many pictures and not enough time or words to describe them all, so I am going to be brief.

FLASH...
just a few days prior to our Cali trip in June Gracie learned how to ride her bike without training wheels. When we got back from our trip she picked up right where she left off and since then she has become our little flash lightning on 2 wheels.

                                    


FIREWORKS...
for 4th of july we took it easy this year (something about being 6 months pregnant). we took Gracie to the Sedro Woolley Carnival and let her ride a few rides. then we traveled down south to the in-laws where we babequed and relaxed. we took a quick trip over to boom city to pick up some fireworks for Gracie and then spent the rest of the evening watching her light them off. it was a very calm independance day - a nice change from tradition.






 FAMILY...
with our little family soon to be expanding we decided to capture what we look like now - a sort of 'before' shot of us prior to lil Z's arrival. my mother-in-law took these in her backyard. it was a brief "photo shoot" but it got the job done!








Mark celebrated his 31st birthday by working so the next day I took him out to eat. i arranged for our closest friends to accompany us without his knowledge and he rather enjoyed that little surprise. Happy birthday to my handsome sweetheart!
