First Water Day

Ava had her first pool day of the summer! It was at the Johnson's house. She loved it! Her favorite part was splashing:) I don't think she wanted to get out! Ava is going to be a water baby!

Father's Day!

Ava and I took Cary for a surprise hike on Father's Day. We went to Blue Job State Forest in New Hampshire. Cary carried all the way up and down, she loved every minute of it. She was so good! Ava just laughed and slept the whole time:) It turned out to be a great day. The weather was beautiful and everything was so green. Summer has arrived, yay! Cary's first Father's Day was so much fun and enjoyable for the whole family.

Goddaughter Pampering

This year I took Lindy Lou and Tricia Janey (my goddaughters) out for a day at the spa and Skyline Chili. We got our nails done. I think the best part of the whole day was helping them pick out their colors. They were so cute! Both of them decided on 2 colors for their hands and toes, they were definitely colorful:) We had some great girl time!

Cincinnati Reds fans

While we were in Cincinnati I was able to catch a Reds game. They ended up losing to the Dodgers so no fireworks but I did get to enjoy some fabulous nachos and great weather. Ava didn't get to go but had fun with Grandma and Papa listening to it on the radio. All of us had a fun time and we even got free hats. Go Reds!

The Wise's

Ava's first time to some Cincinnati favorites

Even though Ava couldn't enjoy the food (someday) she had her first visits to Montgomery Inn and Graeter's Ice Cream. It was so yummy! She loved every minute of it but I know she is going to love it even more when she can have her own plate of ribs and ice cream:)
