Summer at the Lily Pad

Summer is here and it has been a hot one!! We have had company and the pool has had many visitors.....here are some pictures of who came to see us...
Zach, Kristen, Pat and Ava were here one weekend and we all had fun swimming and trying on sunglasses!!! Ava looked like Bono!

Kaitlyn, Jim's daughter, came from Tennessee and brought her dog Tucker along. They stayed with us about 6 days and we went to a Dave Matthews concert and Tim McGraw and Lady Antebellum concert. We had a GREAT time!!! Jim's sister Mindy also spent the weekend while Kaitlyn was here. All the dogs in all our families get along fine...they have fun too!

Now Kristen and Ava are here for a visit and Sarah is going to do Ava's 2 year old pictures tomorrow. So it should be fun! I might just have to take a few myself to post them!!!!

Ava's 2nd Birthday

Well, June 19, Ava turned 2!!! Kristen had a party for her at the Little Cove, a kiddie swim park. It was really nice. She loves Nemo and her cake that Julie made had Nemo on it. Her friends came and everyone had a nice time.
I brought her a doll that was purchased in 1992 by my Mother, her great grandmother, that had never been opened. It has the same eye color and hair color as Ava! The clothes that the doll is wearing match an outfit I had made for Kristen when she was about 2! WHAT a coincidence, or was it meant to be?
Anyway, she has a very special present, from her Great Nanny and Nana!!!!
