July was another busy month! We celebrated the Fourth of July by taking a trip to Morganton, NC, to visit with Mel's family. While we were there, we got to attend two fireworks displays. Lydia was not a big fan of the first one and basically would only "peep" at them through her fingers while her hands were covering her eyes. By the second round, however, she was thouroughly excited and wanted to "catch" them! We also visited the town of Blowing Rock and South Mountain State Park, while we were there, and Lydia was thrilled to be able to hang out with her cousins!

We also celebrated my dad's birthday in July, and both of my sisters and their children were able to join us. We are not all able to get together very often, so we were thankful for the time. In addition to her "learning time," Lydia LOVES to do "crafty" projects like painting (with watercolors), playing with Play Doh, etc., so I have included one of those pictures, as well as one where Lydia is very ready to go to her "pool," which is a small one in the yard, but makes for a nice break on hot days!
