Father's Day 2009

On Father's Day this year Ava gave her daddy a book. Bryan also got a beach bucket with a swimsuit and things to do with Ava when we visit the Galveston Beach. Bryan's dad came to visit with his wife and we went out to dinner and watched Ava play in the Market Street Fountains. We enjoyed having them visit us! Ava loved seeing her Grand-Dad and T.G.

Fun in the Woodlands!

Our family has just recently moved to The Woodlands from Plano, Texas. It has been difficult, but we have had some fun too. We have been trying to stay cool in the Texas heat! One of our favorite things to do is go swimming at our apartment pool. Ava loves splashing in the pool and isn't afraid of the water. We also visit the fountains at Market Street and she loves to run around with the other children trying to catch the water as it shoots out of the ground. Recently, we went to the Children's Museum in Houston with some new friends from church. They have a neat "Tot Spot" upstairs for the little ones to play in. Ava also enjoyed the water fun outside.

Our Little Lady Bug Turns One!

Happy First Birthday Ava! Our little bug turned one on May 1st. She had a Little Lady Bug Brunch and Circus Party to celebrate the day!

Her Little Ladybug Brunch was on May 3rd. She had fun with all her play date friends. She had cake for the first time, but ended up eating green beans instead. Everyone else chose the cake :)! We hope that Ava keeps those eating habits. She played "Pin the Tail on the Lady Bug" and other games. Ava loved getting wet outside on her new watertable. Thanks everyone that came and celebrated with her.

Ava's Bebe held a Circus Party in her honor for the family. We had peanuts, popcorn, cotton candy, animal crackers, and all the other Circus-y type foods. She had a circus tent with balls and face painting. This time Ava did enjoy her cake....a lot!
