There's Not A Good Title Because There Are Too Many Things To Blog About In This One Post

So as you can see from the title, I have some catch up work to do.  First, I got a haircut. I love it. Michelle in my ward did it and I'm really happy with it. I wanted it short so I do have to straighten it a lot but it actually doesn't look bad curly so I do have the option. Lucky!

Next, was our June Obscure Holiday Celebration with the Hudsons.  June 20th is National Ice-Cream Float Day.  Again there was sickness so we postponed it a week.  We had a BBQ and then you guessed it, ice-cream floats.  We had orange soda floats which were sublime and we also had rootbeer.  It was so fun to get together and I'm glad we make it happen every month.  It's fun to see the girls together too.  Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures of the actual BBQ or floats but just of the girls.  You can also see a video on Facebook of their Dance Off.

Next, Jocelyn is a thug.


Next, Jocelyn went in a pool for the first time.  It was a little cold but other than that she had no reaction.  I guess that's a good thing.

All suited up. 

I just want to eat her up, she's so cute.

Next, was our 4th of July Celebration.  We got up and went to our Stake Pancake Breakfast.  It was good and we made some new friends.  Then we went to the parade.  We watched it with the Walkers.  Unfortunately we missed half of the parade.  It was weird how they set it up.  They had the first part of the parade line up in a parking lot just before us so we saw them.  Then the rest of the parade was lined up in a parking lot just after us so we missed them.  Boo, but oh well.  Jocelyn did surprisingly well considering she needed a nap.  Luckily the fire trucks were kind with their loud horns.

My little firecracker.

After the parade we went to El Dorado Hills and spent the rest of the day with Dave's family.  We went to a BBQ that night at the Harrisons and then set off some of our own fireworks.  Again, Jocelyn did surprisingly well.  We covered her ears and she watched intently and didn't make a peep the entire time.  On our way back home, we were also able to see some big ones that Rancho was putting off.  It was a great day.

This is Jocelyn at the parade but this is pretty much what she looked like all during the fireworks.

Next, Mike and Megan came over to bring Jocelyn a gift.  They got her a super cute skirt.  She played with Uncle Mike's hat and posed for many pictures.  What a trooper. 

She's gonna ride bikes some day. 

Megan and Jocelyn excited about the new skirt.

Mike was also very excited about it.

Lastly, are just a couple random pictures of Jocelyn and things she is learning. 

She wants to play the piano like daddy. 

And she wants to type on the computer like daddy.
