River Trip Pictures and Video!

Hey All-
We finally found a few moments to upload our river pictures and a short video! We had so much fun and can't wait for our next trip in a few weeks!
We are busy getting things ready for Avery's 2nd birthday party on Saturday (She officially turns 2 on the 4th of August). We'll tell you all about it and share pictures as soon as we can.
For now, enjoy the river pics! The video is after all the pictures. It is short and we caught Avery at the tail end of her rowing adventure. She was a little tired and hungry at the time.

Rowing with mama.

Rowing with papa...but mostly eating chips.

All that rowing would make anyone exhausted!

Providing shade for the little one while she sleeps...

...and sleeps (she averaged about three hours of sleep on the boat everyday).

Carrying her bunny in a sling (its really a sarong)

Big hugs for Aunt Shelly and Uncle Jesse.

Aunt Shelly and Uncle Jesse are telling Avery that Tamu (the dog) does not like having sand thrown on him. Avery told Tamu sorry and wiped the sand off. He was very appreciative.

In the inflatable kayak with papa (They are right next to the shore).

New Pictures!!!

Well, I finally have a little time to sit down and add some pictures to this blog. We have been so incredibly busy! We were able to escape for some fun on a four day river trip with Avery and family. I will post those pictures as soon as I download them. We had a great time and Avery loved it as much as she did last year!
Some of the pictures below were taken by Grandma Cindy during her visit. Papa built Avery a swing set while I was away working on the river. Avery is happy with her new swing!
The other pictures are from playing at the park, playing with headbands in the backyard, and bike riding with Avery's best friend Stella.

Avery wanted to put on all of her headbands.

Jackson is being so patient.

Doesn't Jackson look so pretty in a headband?

Watching the water in the creek at the park.

We have lots of new pictures to share with you and will post them soon. Check back in a few days when we can find the time to download them on the computer!
