My first 4th of July.

Mommy tried to tell me what the 4th of July was about, and tried to warn me of all of these loud sounds I would hear after I was asleep for my bedtime. Some people came over, who I remember seeing before, and they all sat at the table and said "oh wow, that's good." I think daddy made something called ribs? They looked really messy, my kind of food! I got ahold of mommy finger later when she wasn't paying attention and got a taste of daddy's rib sauce. It was good! Mommy also went on and on about the first pie she's ever made. She's silly enough to have even taken a picture of it! I was asleep when everyone ate it, so I didn't get to try it. Mommy also put me in a pretty dress she said was 'festive". Everyone said they thought it was cute, but I just wanted to chew on it. Mommy is now going to post some pictures of my day.

P.S. I slept through the fireworks, and mommy said they were REALLY loud. But I was a good girl and just slept the night away! I must have been having a good dream!
