Hi, Mommy’s bloggy friends! Mommy said I could com-and-deer her blog to show you some pictures from our Fourth of July.  My Grandma and Grandpa (Daddy’s mommy and daddy) and my Aunt Lydi and Uncle Sam came to see me from Pencil-cola and Acklanta. We had fun!
My Aunt Lydi woke up early and went to Krispy Kreme to bring us doughnuts and hats. She and Grandpa tried on the hats on the front porch:

I liked the doughnuts. Lots!!!

For lunch we had grilled burgers and dogs,  Aunt Lydi’s baked beans, Mommy’s Italian coleslaw, and corn on the cob. Yum.

At night we went downtown for fireworks by the river. The best part was when Mommy let me get my face painted. At first she said I wasn’t old enough, but she let me try anyway ’cause it was a special day.

At first I didn’t like it at all:

But I stuck it out and then I had a butterfly on my face!

When I finally got to look in the mirror…

…I didn’t want to  let it go:

After I got my butterfly, Uncle Sam let me ride on his shoulder:

I had fun watching the band with Aunt Lydi:

I told anyone who would listen: “I got a butterfly!”

Finally, I got to watch fireworks with my Mommy. I was fascinated for the first five explosions:

…but then I buried my face in Mommy’s shirt for the rest of the show. (Then Mommy had a very smeary butterfly on her shirt and I had a very smeary butterfly on my face. Oopsy!)

Well, it’s three hours past my beddy-time, so I better say bye-bye. Mommy says to tell her bloggy-friends that she will write tomorrow about what we did Saturday.

Love!
