Napa


We met my friend, Kim, and her husband Eric in Napa for tastings and catching up. Kim has an amazing palate!

We were touring the Stagecoach vineyards and these grapes belong to Paul Hobbs. They were very yummy...can't wait to taste the wine!

Me and Kim inside the caves at Schramsberg (my favorite American sparkling)

This is Tucker, a famous winery dog at Shafer. He even has his own business cards.

We also visited a couple of local landmarks. We went to the petrified forest (pictured) and also California's Old Faithful Geyser. The forest was way better. I would like to thank my parents for keeping all the kids to make this trip possible!

Lake Chicot





The McGarrh family reunion headed to Lake Chicot, AR where we had fun swimming, canoeing, boating, tubing, fishing, and eating. It was Ava's first swim in a lake. She took right to it. My girl scout canoeing skills finally came in handy.

Mmmmmmmmm good!


Just a typical mealtime at our house

Baby's got new shoes


Ava is now walking, so of course it was time for a trip to the local Stride rite store.

Bowling?


Ava was introduced to Bowling last weekend at the McGarrh family reunion in Greenville. She decided the best thing about bowling alleys are the steps. (and no, the A on her outfit does not stand for Alabama)


Aunt Tracy and cousin Sarah fight over who gets to hold the little cutie next.
