Ava's Walking!

OSU is #1! Go Bucks!

Weekend in Cincinnati

We went to Cincinnati this past weekend. On Saturday Michael's mom and dad babysat Ava so we could go to Cumberland to see Debra cheer. Amy and Jake came into town, too, and rode with us. Debra did really well... I think Michael is still in denial that his baby sister is in college! You can see Debra in the pictures, she's the one up in the air.
The rest of the weekend we hung out with the family. Ava enjoyed getting a ton of attention from everyone.
Sunday night we went to Jen and Tim's wedding. (Jen is Michael's best friend from high school.) Their wedding was really beautiful, and they seemed really happy. Unfortunately we had to leave early to get back to Columbus. And..we totally forgot to bring our camera into the wedding, so we didn't get any pictures. Thankfully we got one of the 3 of us dressed up before we went.

Trick or Treat

We took Ava to the mall for trick or treat. It's pretty cool that Tuttle Mall does this! Most of the retailers stand outside of their store and pass out candy to the kids who come dressed up. It feels really safe, especially to me (mary) who can be really overprotective! :)
Anyway, these are some pictures of Ava in her other costume, We think she made a very cute pumpkin! Thanks Mom J for the costumes!

Boo at the Zoo

This past weekend we went to Boo at the Zoo here in Columbus. It sounds like it would be kinda scarry, but it's not. It's basically just people passing out candy in random stations throughout the zoo. Kids can dress up, so Ava was a bumblebee for the day. My parents came, as well as the Pierces, and their family from PA. It was fun times and the best part was that Ava got a bunch of candy that she is too little to eat, so Michael and I got to eat most of it! :) This is probably the last time we will get away with that before she starts to notice.
We also went to Noah's B-day party, He turned 8. Ava got to participate in the pinata' for the first time...again more candy for Michael and I! :) My mom and dad babysat again, we are getting so spoiled.. It was great! We went minigolfing... Michael won by one putt! We are very competitive at minigolf... but, it was a good game. Then, we went to Easton to walk around and we got our first starbucks carmel applecider of the season, many more to come, I'm sure! Thanks mom and dad for giving us a little break!
