Disney...Characters

 

 We took Ava Kathryn to Disney World for the week for her 6th birthday. This is a small sampling of some of her favorite characters.

 Not a character, but Rapunzel's tower (which is a really cool new nice restroom area-our favorite!)

 Always a favorite of AK's...Ariel. She just wants the fin!

Happy Birthday!!!!

 Ava begged to have her 6th birthday party at ChuckECheese...so we did.

 Some of her old daycare buddies she never gets to see anymore.

 Hello Kitty!!

 It's not a party without the Cupid Shuffle. All of AK's training at the Delta Room is paying off!

 My favorite...skeeball

 Ticket Blaster!! She actually caught the magic ticket worth 1000 tickets.

 

In A Week...

 The first on campus football game of the year at Mississippi State. I think the hottest day of the year in Starkville!!

 After swim practice...

 The coping and tile in the pool.

Our trip to Healthworks

 Healthworks is an interactive reinforcement to healthy lifestyle for kids in Tupelo. AK and I visited on Saturday while Michael was on his annual guys golf trip. I'm not sure how many healthy habits Ava learned, but she had a ton of fun.

 Loved this giant Operation game!!

 The Brain theater with a cool movie about the brain and how it works.

 The Broccoli Slide!

 

1st day of Kindergarten!!

 AK started kindergarten today (I can't believe it!!). It was also the first time meeting her teacher. I was able to take her for her first day, and Michael went to the school to have lunch with her. She did really well and came home with a pink light (the best color you can get on the behavior chart).

 Hanging up her backpack in her cubby.

 Modeling her new backpack her Aunt Tracy and Uncle Mark gave her as an early birthday present.
