Happy 4th of July!

A big event occured here overnight....Ellery FINALLY slept through the night last night! It was wonderful. I was up for about 30 minutes laying there wondering why she wasn't awake. It's sad when I'm wide awake at 6:15 without an alarm...my how life has changed. Anyway...hopefully everyone had a great holiday weekend. Jason, Ellery and I stayed home. Riverboat Days was last weekend, so we went down there twice. RBD's is Iowa's largest 4th of July festival...lol...all in all it wasn't too bad. We had some fair food, drank a few beers, Jason went to the Styx concert and we all went to ultimate fighting. We also went out on the boat over the weekend. We had a good time for about an hour, then Ellery started having a meltdown. My meltdown started shortly after hers. I've attached some pictures from our weekend.
LOL...this is a picture of Ellery in Hobby Lobby. We didn't end up buying the headband, but it was too funny not to take a picture.

Ellery woke up a few days ago with major "bed head"...like her mommy always does.

4th of July...doen't she look thrilled?!?


Daddy and Ellery getting home from RBD's. She had so much fun people watching. I forgot to take the camera with us, so I only got a picture arriving home.

Ellery's first boat ride.


Boating with daddy.



Not happy.

I love these pictures. Ellery is playing in the bottom of the boat while Jason is fishing.



Chubby cheeks.

Driving the boat.
