4th '04

I would like everyone to know that I, and, by proxy, Quinn, LOVE SUMMER. Seriously. All the good stuff happens in the summertime.

Anyway.

My cousin Cathy's family is hosting two Irish girls this summer. Their names are Emma and Jolene and they are adorable. I love hearing their brogues, even if I don't understand what they're saying half the time. I'd like for them to sit in my living room and read aloud from People magazine. That sounds like a solid afternoon of fun for me.

Here's Quinn swimming with Jolene while wearing the ring-toss rings as "base-yets."



Today was Aunt Peggy and Uncle Jerry's annual 4th of July party, and unlike last year, the temperature stayed under 120 degrees.



As usual, Uncle Dennis lavished lots of attention on her and took her for one of what would be many walks she went on throughout the afternoon.



Aunt Peggy's house is a street away from Lake Michigan, and there were lots of people milling around waiting for fireworks. But why seek out fireworks when you can play with sidewalk chalk with the Irish girls?



Quinn and Emma, the snuggliest Irish girl ever.



And Quinn with her idol, AUNT CONNIE!

That's the same dress I bought for my 2 year old! Isn't it the cutest? Of course, I took not one photo of her on the 4th! doh!I love Quinn's pigtails, too. :)
