Christmas Time is Here!

 Ava gave us her very first Christmas Gift!!!  She made an ornament at daycare.  It is a plastic globe with snow and "Merry Christmas" confetti inside.  Her hand print is on it too!  So cute! Here she is putting it on the tree with Dadda : )

Halloween 2012

This year for Halloween,  Ava had a Halloween celebration at Ms. Diane's house with her friends. She was a cupcake!  That night we made a Jack-O-Lantern.  Ava and I cleaned the pumpkin out and Steve carved it.  She had a lot of fun greeting the Trick-or-Treaters!

This Year!!

Last Year....

Wow~ What a 

difference a year makes!

World Series 2012-Go Giants!!!

While hanging out at the Gallaty's and being the cutest Giant's cheerleader ever, Ava also took her first shot (of whipped cream).  Thanks Auntie Ash!

GO GIANTS!!!

Open Wide!

"Hmmm, that was pretty good...."

"Heck yeah, I'll have another : )"

Casa De Fun!

We went camping with the Noteware's at Casa De Fruta!  We got to go on the carousel, the train ride, the park, and bike riding in Ava's new bike trailer.  The kids loved it! It was also our first camping trip where the kids went to bed at the same time, so the adults had a game night.  It was a great weekend!
