Last weekend(Aug. 15-18th) Grace and I spent the weekend in Algona, IA with Chris's parents and Chris went to Michigan with his brothers and sister-in-law. Daddy had a fun weekend at the races and we had lots of fun in Algona. Grace experienced some of her firsts. Grace went to the public library, she got to feed fish in a pond, and went on her first harley ride. Grace had a lot of fun since she spent the whole weekend with Oma and Papa Harley and they took her out to show her off. She got to see and play with her Tik Tak Oma and Oma's day care kids. With all the pictures you can see all the fun we had.
Will update later Daddy's trip to Michigan for the Nascar races.

Some of Grace's 9 month pictures............





















It was a lot of fun to take Grace to get her pictures taken. At first she wasn't really sure what to think but she warmed up and was a ham. We captured some of her fun expressions.
