4th of July 2010

I had Charli go out on my parents' deck to take some pictures. She's become quite a little turkey. She poses and it's not that easy to get a natural smile.

Here she is playing with the turtle we bought mom and dad as a thank you gift.

Red, White and Blue from eyes to toes.....
playing with her flag

a natural look

I love this serious one

and hamming it up....

a great smile

She was being a stinker and I told her "NO" so she was crying. You can even see the tear running down her cheek and the lip sticking out is so appropriate. I'm sure she'll like this one in 10 years or so.....

I had my dad snap a couple of the two of us.

Me and my girl!!!

Papa giving her a spin in the pool

floating with cousin Emma

and Eric hamming it up with the girls....

First ever sparklers with Papa

she thought they were pretty cool

and the only fireworks shot I took as we didn't really have any this year. I may go to Lumberjack days to watch some and will attempt more pictures then.

Hope you all had a good 4th.
