Getting prettied up!

Most of the time I am in "mommy gear", so it was so nice to get to dress up for the celebration of Chinese New Year. One of the companies that Daddy represents is a Chinese company. They invited us to a Chinese New Year celebration at the Canton House. It was so fun and quite a cultural experience. We saw a festive dragon dance, heard a speech from the Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed and I even ate some jelly fish! It was a great night of dressing up and a yummy dinner!

Grammy's Birthday

What Family is all about!!

Happy Birthday Grammy!

Fun times with balloons


Ava is ready for the royal wedding!

Making cupcakes with Grammy and Mommy




Being a helper

We had a great weekend celebrating Grammy's birthday! Since Grammy is still recovering from her foot surgery so we had a family celebration at Doc and Grammy's house. Doc and the "daughters" made dinner so Grammy could just play with, laugh with and enjoy her grand-babies. It was a fantastic weekend full of great family times!

Saturday Fun!

Being silly with Mommy

Dental care is very important


Building towers with Daddy


Even when having fun, you have to have a time out!

This morning Mommy had to go to a Women's Ministry training, so Ava and Daddy had a fun morning together! They played tag, built towers, read books, and watched Shrek 2! So very thankful and feel very blessed that Adam is such an amazing, wonderful Daddy!! Ava is a very lucky little girl and I am a very happy and thankful Mommy!

Ava is my little swimmer

BRRRRR! A huge cold front came in this afternoon. So what does an active little girl do, if it is too cold to play outside? Ava went "swimming" in our big bathtub. The water was colored with ice cubes that were dyed with different colors. Ava also played with some colored foam. It was so much fun and Ava had a blast!
