A couple trips....

First to Nonno and Nonna's for Labor Day weekend and then a day trip to Iowa City for Harris' 11th Birthday (I can hardly believe he is that old already). Ava has had a few busy days...explains why she has taken two three hour naps today. There was way too much going on to get any sleep on those trips! It took me a little while to get up the nerve to start traveling with her, but I think it paid off because she is an excellent traveler. We had a great time on each trip and came home with fresh greenbeans, the best peaches from Uncle Dale that Dad picked himself, a bag full of pumpkin blossoms that we promptly fried up and ate in one sitting (still not as good as Mom does, but pretty darn close), a trunk full of clothes for Ava...THANKS JENN (and Anna for helping me load it all up...she stood behind the fence and handed me things--cute), and the realization that Ava LOVES hanging out with her cousins...they are so animated, loud and interesting to watch! She must think I am so boring after seeing all of them. Can't wait to go visit again!

I love that photo thinking about how loud it was when we were attempting these shots!

I know, and Ava loved every minute of it!
