The top picture in this post was from a 5K we did in Chicago in May. It was at Soldier Field and was for the Path to Progress for brain tumor research. My cousin organized a team on behalf of her brother who is a brain tumor survivor. We had a great time and besides lots of family, we were also excited to walk with Aunts Liz and Kristin!

These other pics were taken at Gifford's 4th of July celebration which is always the week before the 4th. There were a couple of bands and Anna absolutely loved dancing with her Dad. Please note I did have sandals on her earlier in the day, but that did not last. Needless to say a bath was absolutely necessary when we got home that night!
We took a trip to the antique tractor show in Penfield on Friday night, and Andy took Anna up on the Big Bud tractor. It was huge!
Over a month ago now we had a play date with cousins Gavin and Tilly. It was so much fun getting them all together. We will miss these visits when they leave the country next month :( But hopefully we will get to visit them in England!!



Jami dressed her up in some scarves and Anna didn't seem to mind ;)

Trying out some of her new birthday toys. She loves this horse!! (PS...please don't mind this outfit, we had some difficulties that day keeping things clean)



The Gifford 4th of July Celebration also had a petting zoo. Anna absolutely loved all of the animals and pretty much wanted to attack them :)







On the 4th of July we went to Kyle and Katie's for a cookout. Emmet and Anna played for very long periods of time in the coolers. They loved getting the ice out of there and eating it. Then at one point Anna took a beer out, which of course Andy encouraged her to bring to him ;)
