Just a Few Pictures...

We haven't really been taking many pictures, but we have been out and about now that we are all healthy again.
Here are a couple of pictures I took really fast because Avery was on the move! She was so excited to get outside and play after being in the house for a few days.

Playing ball with the dogs.
Looking longingly at the baby pool. Wishing, hoping, that
winter will soon be over so she can go swimming.

Hey all,
No new posts lately because we have all had the flu. We have been recovering and therefore have not been out and about. We have been mostly watching movies, napping, and reading. Nothing exciting here.
Hopefully we will all feel better soon so we can get outside and take some pictures to share with you!
Keep checking back for updates.

Warm Weather...Finally!

On Saturday, it was 65 degrees and it really felt like it was 80 after all the cool weather we have had. I went on a bike ride during Avery's nap, and everyone was out and about in tank tops, shorts, dresses and skirts. It was really nice to have some spring-like weather.
Today was just as beautiful, but we hear that snow is likely this coming week. I am ready for it to stop snowing. I love it, but there comes a time towards the end of every winter that I am ready to see it go. It has been a very long winter and we have been waiting to get out of our little cave and into the warm sunshine!
Here are some pictures of sweet Avery soaking up the sun...



This picture is a little dark, but Avery is telling
me that the grill is "HOT!"

Fence Building

Sunday was fence building day at our house. We needed to replace the fence in our front yard, and yesterday we finally got it done. Zak and Ali came over to help and little Avery was there to pitch in as well. It was a nice day to build the fence because the snow has melted and the sun was shining at times. However, it did start to snow on us (in fact it is snowing as I am writing this) but it eventually turned into rain and then the sun came back out.
Here are some photos of the day...

Determined to get the safety glasses sitting on the fence post.

Still extremely determined.

Fun Filled Afternoon

Yesterday it was a mildly warm (low 50's) and beautifully sunny day. Everyday after Avery's nap, we go for a walk to the park and swing and go down the slide. The warmer weather was so nice. We are really looking forward to more spring-like weather. Today it is back to the cold, windy, and cloudy weather we have been having. But that won't stop us from going to the park!
At the park yesterday, I took the camera along to get some photos of Avery and to also experiment with all the different features it has.
Here are some pictures from the park...



Eric met up with us at the park and we decided to eat at Patty's because it was such a nice day and Avery could play and run around in the grass. Zak met us there and we had a great time.


Uncle Zak tossed Avery in the air. She loved it! She kept signing "more".



After dinner, Uncle Zak gave Avery a ride on his Recumbent.
