Ward Trick or Treat Party 2009

This year our ward combined with Columbia ward to do the Halloween Party. It turned out great! It was so much fun having all the people there and we really enjoyed ourselves. I had a great time bringing my friend Becky and her son Liam. Ava and Liam love to play together and they were so cute as a monkey and cheerleader.

Fall 2009

David, Ava and I made it to the Pumpkin Patch yesterday. We had a great time, but Ava was still pretty apprehensive when she saw all the people there and the mass amounts of orange pumpkins! She finally warmed up to them and even though she wouldn't look at the camera it did look like she was having a bit of fun. We also had Ava's cousin Eli's B-day party yesterday. We had a fun time doing the little carnival activities and I know that Ava had a fabulous time being dressed up. She said that "I pretty." (Meaning herself)
We are excited that all is going well right now. David is still going crazy trying to juggle work and school, I am getting so tired of working and being away from Ava, but I know its just till we can get David out of school and with a career so hopefully not too many more years! Ava is growing like a week and talking up a storm. She can repeat almost any word now and her new phrase is "oh gosh." Everything she falls, she throws her doll or if she is just jumping around that is the words that she says. The new little one is also growing well. The doctor is still thinking May 10Th and we are glad that the baby looks healthy. I am feeling better these days and can actually eat without it wanting to come back out. We hope life is treating all of you well!
