California!

We went down to California last weekend for a wedding and had lot's of fun! I flew in with Ava a couple of days before Ian got there so we could spend some time with Angi and her family. It was so good to get away and see everybody!

Ava's first time in the ocean! She loved it and would have gone in a lot further if I let her! But she loved to feel the waves on her legs and the sand in her toes. :)

I just love the ocean! So beautiful.


Being at the beach now that I have a one year old, is not the same as it used to be! I spent most of my time chasing her around and trying to keep her from eating sand, didn't go too well as you can see her gagging from putting a sandy hand in her mouth! =O

She did sit peacefully for a moment enjoying a nice bottle while watching the ocean. She loves her bottles! I don't know how we'll ever get rid of them.....

Enjoying a nice swing with the beautiful ocean in the background, oh how I'll miss the ocean!

Lexi and Ella pushing her in the swing, she absolutely loves her cousins!

Grandma and Aunt Angi took all the kids to the aquarium while we were in L.A. at the wedding, she had so much fun looking at all the fishies!

Going for a ride on the cement bunny rabbit. This little figure sits outside of Angi's house, and Ava walked out the front door and hopped on, so cute!

And a shot of Ian and I at his friend Cory's wedding. It was very formal as you can see and was alot of fun getting all dressed up and having a whole entire night out to ourselves! A first in over 15 months. Well deserved...
