Table Manners Please!

We picked up dinner and brought it home tonight.  While eating Grammy & PaPaw called to talk to Ava about her birthday.  This is how she proceeded to sit at my dinner table and carry on a phone conversation. This lasted only as long as it took me to get the camera and snap it.

Under God's Sea in 3D

Grace participated in the same music camp twice this Summer.  First with a friend at her church and then at our church where she was a fish.  At our church she also took a Young Rembrandts art class where she learned how to draw sea creatures.

Grace with all of her art that was on display.

Happy 4th Birthday Ava

Ava today is your 4th birthday!  You wanted your party to be a Strawberry Shortcake party at Chuck E. Cheese.  You loved playing all the games and eating cake but you did not like Chuck E. Cheese one bit.  As soon as you saw him you darted as far away as possible from him into my arms.  Once in my arms you climbed as far up as you could get on my side so that you were as far away as possible from him.  You got lots of clothes, money, and toys that are some of your favorites. 

Camping with Beau & Julie

We spent the weekend camping with Beau and Julie.

I am the only one of all 4 of us who never caught a fish!

This is my view the entire time we were fishing.

But I did manage to play with the camera and found some fun things.

And I found this really cute baby zebra!

100+ boxes of Girl Scout Cookies

Grace sold well over 10 boxes of cookies and if you did you were invited to the Ice Cream social.

4th of July - 2010

The girls on the 4th.  This was about as red, white, and blue as I could get Grace.  Although she did change once we got rained out at the parade.
