Kensie's Birthday Camping Trip

We had a ward camp out over the weekend and since Kensie works over the weekend we went early so she could have some wilderness time. It was also her Birthday while we were there! We went with our awesome friends Marin and Collin! No men mind you, just the ladies and little C-dog!The first night was perfect weather!
The sign says it all!

This is a warm and very happy little bunny we found!

It rained quite a bit on Kensie's special day so we spent a lot of time indoor (aka: Tent)!
Here we are having birthday cake!
Here's these two having a good'ol time in the tent!

This was a way fun barrel swing!

Broccoli

Ava is almost eating everything (not really though). I guess she is eating every veggie and fruit we can get her to try. No, she's really willing to try just does not always love it. We tried broccoli. I can't tell for sure if she likes it. She starts eating it and then when I give her more a lot of it ends up on the floor. When do we start dairy and meat, she was eyeing my burger last night?

10 months old

Here is 10 month old Ava, in all her GLORY!

Can you tell that I have a hard time just picking a few? I just want to make you smile, that's all!
Having moved we are still working with our new surroundings to try to get a good shot!
She has 5 teeth and is crawling arounf like crazy picking up everything the vacuum missed.
She signs "all done", and says the phrase she hears the most "No no"!

She smiles and waves at everyone (except Rob, I don't know what the deal is)
"Who's the best?"
I just love her!
We get this face a lot!
This one too!
She stands a lot and is working on the walking while pushing something.

2 more months and she'll have been on this earth a whole year!!!
(on this earth and not in anyone elses body that is)

Haleigh is good at what she does!
Johnny is a wonderful singer and with Micheal who plays Sax for a living it was the best!
