Cool Ride

It was a little warmer today, so we were able to get outside with Ava's new bike (with pedals). She loved it. She never wanted to get off. She kept saying "Ava's bike with pedals like mommy and daddy." I know...she doesn't have her helmet on...I picked the warmer one today otherwise she always wears it.

Santa Came!

I think it took Ava a minute to understand what exactly was going on. Where did this stuff come from? Is this all mine??

First present opened. Ava got tired of opening presents and had to take a break for breakfast before we forced her to finish opening. Who's ever heard of that?

Ava was cooking up some fabulous Christmas dinner with her new kitchen.

Christmas Eve 2009

We had very stormy weather Christmas Eve, but luckily Gigi and Granpa were able to make it from Greenville. Of course we had the traditional spinach lasagna for dinner with pumkin pie and banana pudding for dessert. Yummy! It is a good thing Michael was well-fueled since he had a long night of assisting Santa assemble Ava's kitchen.
