Culdasac Gang

We have playing and riding bikes outside in the culdasac in the morning with all the neighbor kids. Ava loves all the little girls next door. It's too bad they have to leave next week for the football season. She will miss playing with them!

Playing with the Boys

Ava is starting to play more with the boys, it's cute! Sometimes i'm sure they don't quite appreciate that she is just trying to love them! She calls them true-y (Crew) and giffs (Griffin) and they laugh and think she is so funny!

Griffin always loves it when Ava dumps out boxes of crackers, which she often does lately. He just happened to be in arms reach, lucky guy!

I asked her to get the boys a couple of toys to play with in their hi-chair. I didn't think I meant the whole toy box!


Crew as a cute little girl?

So nice to share the dolls! I think they would rather have a truck or something?

This is how I left the boys to run upstairs for two minutes!

This is how they were when I came back down! Neither of them were crying so they must not have minded to much!

Tennis Lessons

I have been taking tennis lessons with Lacey, Shaley, Caitlyn and my mom the past little while which ended last week! I learned a lot about tennis and we had a fun time and lots of laughs, but we'll just say that I still need lots and lots of practice!
Our class (except for my mom who missed team picture night)


Our instructors Kenny and Jeremy. They were great!

4th of July

We had a fun 4th of July! We went to the parade in the morning. Then the all the girls went down to the arts festival for a bit, followed by swimming and barbequing all afternoon with both families before heading to the Staduim of Fire!

We went to Stadium of Fire in the evening this year with all my family to see Miley Cyrus and the Blue Man Group. We had a fun time! Ava was really good, which I was worried about, and fell asleep right when the fireworks started! A big thanks to Sue for keeping Griffin and Crew for us!

Firework Festivities

Thursday evening we had a kid friendly firework party with our neighbors and families. We enjoyed popcorn, snow cones, tons of treats and fireworks!


When we were little the Chinese house that spins and pops up at the end was our favorite firework and when we were in Vegas a while ago we found some after we were told they had been discontinued!


The glow sticks were definately the hit of the party!

Be Back Soon

I haven't quit blogging!  Our hard drive crashed and we lost all our files and all of my pictures on our computer so they are working to restore all of them, hopefully.  In the meantime I have been left for weeks with no computer and no pictures to blog!
