Swimming

Family swim day

July 2011

Its not often where it is hot enough to go swimming- Ava used to go swimming 2-3x a day when we lived in AZ. We have been 4x in 8 months

She loves the water! Especially when daddy is in it!

Trying to get Ava to Use Big Arms and kicks

Ward Campout

The Besties

Of course i had just given Ava a bath prior to us going to the camp out and with in the first 10 minutes she finds a dirt hole and begins her sand yoga;-)

She likes to feel it between her toes, in her diaper, every where! Good thing we rode up with the Finlayson's! Cause Iwouldn't let her in my car! (Ty had to stay home and study! Man its tough being in school!)

Ava caught in the act of pouring dirt on another-

she was obviously wanting him to become one with the dirt! Duhh:)

The Cutest girl in the world!!!

Trip to the Zoo

Aubry and Ava riding the T REX

Ava loved the dinosaurs

Usually the animals are nice and tame but Jessica ran onto a vicious nut eatin squirrel ahhh!

Look at the Monkeys! (Avery and Jess)

Happy fourth of July 2011

This is one of mine and Tyson's famous poses- every fourth of July we stand in front of the fire works to demonstrate and express our love life- fireworks!! whew!

We went to Happy Valley Park to watch the fire works with the Williams- Josh,Lisa, Noah, and Soren


Ava has the biggest crush on Noah- i have proof of her lovin on him!

Lisa, Noah and Ava- waiting for it to get dark to watch the fireworks

Ava loves sitting on Miss Lisa's lap

Ava is breaking out the glow sticks- she was so excited!!

From the powers of Grey skull- Ava has the Power! (She loves Heman)

Ava in a jumping castle- probably bossing the kids around and telling them to move

Thought this picture was priceless! Man it's good to be a kid!!

putting on my first Garage sale in Portland

Brea and I were brave and put on our own garage sale- u forget how much work goes into putting one of these things on!

Brea hard at work (this is where she was most of the day!) And she just ordered me around haha:)

Ava is all pooped out!! get it?? she's on a porta potty !

Ava just being cute!

went to the mall

Ava is sure rockin the rain boots!

Children's Museum

With mom in town- Ty & Ava wanted to make lunch for us (to bad it was fake food)

One of Ava's favorite places in the museum is the veterinary clinic- where you are supposed to pretend you're a veterinarian! She gets to pretend she's a puppy! Hence why she is in the kennel


She loves to get up on the stage and sing-
American Idol here we come!

She Obviously likes the mic! ha ha

or she's really passionate about the song she is singing

Mom joins in the fun to play with puppets

Fun day at the Park

We went to Happy Valley Park where they have a play area where water shoots from the ground! So cool!

So Cold!!! We didn't have a suit for Ava- we live in Oregon so I figured going in just a diaper would be OK:)
Daddy joined in on all the fun!

Happy Father's Day

Ty is an amazing dad! We made him a cookie with Ava's hand print!

We also woke up to our car being broken into!!

Happy Father's Day!
We love u!
