Favorite American Summer Pasttimes

First, here is a picture of Grace at church.
Sue do you recognize the dress? Yes, it was yours!


Just look at that blonde hair! Too bad she is not looking at the camera.Ok, here she is looking at the camera. Last Thursday GE gave us vouchers to go see the local minor league baseball teams play. This was Grace's first baseball game and she did very well (till about the 4th inning, then we went home to put her to bed)


She seemed to enjoy the lights, the action, and more than anything the people around her (especially if they had sunglasses on that she could try to grab)."Daddy, if you are going to take a picture you should take it of me. Here, I will help. I will shove mommy out of the way so that you can get a good one of me. I am much cuter!"



Not long ago we also went to an antique car and tractor parade in Bridgewater. It was at the same time as their lawn party, but we only went to the parade. Lots of noise, lots of people to look at, lots of candy being thrown to the kids (which Grace got none of). During this time Grace and I had our own little parade. While all of the cars were being shown off Grace got a bit fussy so we walked (or paraded) up and down the street back and forth and back and forth. But all in all it was a good time.

Grace is just loving all of these outdoor activities this summer.

Grace is a cutie! I never thought we would have a blonde grandchild. We love you Grace, and also your four boy cousins. Love Mamaw Betty

Oh, she looks so good in that dress! Thanks for sharing. I hope it wasn't too difficult to iron. Yes, in those days you had to iron - everything. I love her hairdo, too. Oh, is that Grace exercising her right to vote?

Love, Grandma Sue
