More Utah Pics!

Ava and I are finally home after a must needed trip to Utah. We had tons of fun! I was fortunate enough to catch the flu, get my face lasered and have a root canal while I was down there but we did get to do lots of fun things so it made up for the bad!

We had a couple family get togethers for Amanda's Homecoming. Here is Ava and her cousin Bella!

Hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa Pugmire.

I met up with my two good friends Chalet and Denna for our Traditional Tgi-Fridays dinner and Brownie Obsession. It's Amazing!

My mom wanted to take Ava and I to the tulip festival at Thanksgiving point it is so beautiful there but the funny thing was that there were only two patches of tulips that were in bloom because of the crappy weather!

Another picture at Thanksgiving point.

"Girls night out" with all my old Costco buddies.

I was able to be there for my sister's 32nd birthday! So we took her to her favorite lunch spot magleby's fresh for the Tomato basil soup .

Ava chillin in the high chair.

Grandpa Bolda and Ava!

This is my good friend Charee and her daughter Chloe. We were able to be there for Chloe's baby blessing.

Ava Loves Girl Scout Cookies!

Ava and I are milkin' it in Utah still and having a blast! The other night my dad decided he would give Ava a thin mint girl scout cookie. She is very picky about the texture of food and mostly just sucks on food and then spits it out! But she absolutely loved the cookie! She scarfed the whole thing down and loved every minute of it!

Welcome Home Amanda!

Yes we are in Utah again! Tj's sister Amanda finally retured home from her mission in Mesa Arizona. It was so exciting cause she was able to meet Ava for the first time. So much has changed in a year and a half! I can't imagine how weird it must feel to try and adjust to things now and how different everthing is. We are having so much fun hanging out and doing family things. We are all so proud of her and the wonderful things she accomplished on her mission.

Laughing!

I wanted to post this little video of Ava and Her cousin Charli. Ava has this new thing she does whenever a baby crawls towards her she just cracks up! Maybe it's because she can't crawl yet and she thinks it funny! Anyways I thought it was cute.

Happy Easter! and Happy Moving!

Most of our Easter was spent moving! We finally finished up late Sunday night it was such a relief! It has taken us weeks to get everything packed up and into the new house. I realized we have so many more things with a baby now! But We did go to church and Tj's Aunt Sharon invited us over for dinner, it was so delicious and it was definately good to see some family!

Farewell Sam!

So the main reason Ava and I went down to Utah was to say goodbye and to send Sam (my brother-in-law) on a mission to Argentina. I always hate goodbye's especially mission one's because they seem so long and it made me even more sad to think that Ava will be over 2 1/2 years old when he gets back! She will be walking, talking and who knows what else! But We are all so proud of Sam and the great work he is doing and we know he will be a wonderful missionary!

Happy Birthday!

So me and Ava got to spend the week in Utah last week. Of course Tj couldn't get off work but we were able to be there for my dads 60th Birthday! I know it meant alot to him so I am glad we were a part of it! I will post more of our trip soon!

This Cake is amazing! It's called Saunder's cake and it is my dads favorite you can only get it in Michigan!

Grandpa and Ava!

Even Ava loved the cake!
