We had a nice day on the 4th. We didn't have plans until the evening, so Bob and Andrew decided to go to my Dad's house to move a few more items. While they were gone, Heather and Cassie hung out here with me.
I've been trying to get a new picture of Cassie for my photo grouping of the family, but it's hard because she just never stands or sits still. She was dressed so cute for the 4th, we decided to go outside and see what we could get. We gave her a little flag to hold onto, and I got some really cute pictures.
We had lunch together and they went back home, and Bob went with them for a short while to unload a storage cabinet for their garage.
And us girls were playing a card game that was new to us. The game is called Mantis, and was easy and fun.
Before it got too late, we all headed home. We didn't even watch fireworks! But we had a fun day!
I will have to look up the Mantis Game! I need some things to do with the grands. Cassie's photos are wonderful! My favorite is the one you chose (the last one). It could not be sweeter.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a really nice July 4th. I will look for the Mantis Game. Sounds like one my grandkids would like. I love the photos you took of Cassie. She is darling and her grandma is a good photographer! Have a great week. See you again soon!
ReplyDeleteThose are wonderful pictures-Cassie is so precious!

Such cute photos of Cassie! I'm glad you were able to get a good one for your wall, but of course, any one of them would do! I love the one where she's looking down at the flag.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures, and she looked like she was having fun with that flag. I bet she'll be posing for your camera frequently in the near future!
ReplyDeleteYou did indeed get some great pictures but then you had a ever so cute model.

ReplyDeleteCassie is growing so fast! You got some really cute photos of her. I've not heard of that card game either. We didn't watch fireworks either. I like to watch them but I hate the traffic afterwards so we usually skip them. Have a great week!
