Our annual 4th of July block party was a huge success. It did rain (thunder and lightening) for a bit and the party moved into the house for a little while, but we had so much fun. The biggest highlight is that Alyssa (my so shy baby) let her Uncles Larry and Jeff hold her and she didn't even cry. Larry is Ali's God-Father and he has been so very patient with her. He is just so respectful and has been trying and trying and trying to get her to be comfortable with him. Well, yesterday she finally realized what we all know....he is a pretty great guy!! I even have a photo to prove it!! Enjoy the pictures!!!!
