Ava Turns '2' so we had a 'Luau'

Wow, where does time go? Its seem like just yesterday i was pregnant and on bed rest, but really it has been 2 years.

We did just a simple party this year and it was so easy (it will probably never be that way again). We had the party at bush park and just invited family and a few friends.

Ava saying 'cheese' before we left for the park and Mimi pushing her on the swing.

Ava opening presents and tutu and onesie made by Mindy. Ava got a bicycle from Mimi and Papa, she loves it.

Ava blowing out her candle and Jack was sad...

so we sung again to both since they are 3 days apart and then he was happy.

Ava being 'so cute'

the next day was her actual birthday.

She woke up in a silly mood, then she went out and got her present from Mommy and Daddy a playhouse with a door, windows and a doorbell.

Ava wanted Kelsey and Katy to get in the house too.

Then dinner at Red Robbin with Ava's best friend and family. Ava and Jack having their birthday desserts.

Hope you had a wonderful 2nd birthday. We love you.

The Land's Vegas Vacation

(Honeymoon, Geoff's b-day, Anniversary and Adria's early 30th b-day present)

We did so much and had such a great time, i decided just to post some pictures.

Happy Birthday Geoff

Geoff turns 37. We didn't do much since we are headed to Vegas in just a couple of days. We ended up going to my parents for a steak dinner and i grabbed an Ice Cream cake from DQ (yummy).

Just wanted to wish Geoff a very Happy Birthday, I love you so much.

Elmo's Green Thumb

Ava is so in love with Elmo, she wants to watch Elmo like 30 times a day. So after some thought and convincing from Amber, Mimi and Grammie I decided to talk Geoff into it he said he didn't want to spend a lot of money, so we got tickets for opening night, floor seats for $12 instead of $20. Ava had a great time as the pictures will show.

Getting ready to leave

Eating at Red Robin, Ava was being silly.

Ava is such a big girl.

Ava, Daddy and the Elmo gear

Ava, Mommy and all the Elmo gear.

Ava trying to see what was happening

The show is starting

Ava wanted to carry the kettle korn which was almost as tall as her.

The end to a wonderful event/night. Geoff will never do it again (or so he says).
