Note from Ava

Ava has such a big heart!  I lover her soooo much.  I found this note from her sitting on my dresser in our bedroom.  Made me smile from ear to ear.

It says "To Sarah Love Ava
Dear Sarah I love
y.  I think thet you
are the best stepmom
evar. Love Ava"

She is so cute and makes my heart melt!

Ava's got her ears pierced!!!

Ava has been waiting for awhile to get her ears pierced.  Her mom finally said yes.  In 6 weeks she can finally wear the earrings Scott gave to her on her 1st birthday!


Spring Training Game

March in AZ is the best time of year.  People from all over come to AZ to enjoy the weather and go to spring training games.  This year I went to 1 game with work friends.  



Our Mini Moon at Talking Stick Resort

It may have been a short honeymoon but it was a great honeymoon.  Thanks mom and dad for the room at the talking stick and the massages!  They were fantastic.  Just what we needed after a hectic couple of months.  The resort is very nice and we hope to stay there again sometime.  We had the BEST dinner we have ever had.  The food was amazing!  We went to Orange Sky at the top of the hotel.  FABULOUS!!!!  Thank you Jon and Kathy for a wonderful dinner.  After dinner we gambled.....and lost.  But that doesn't matter because we had so much fun!!!

 Nice hotel rooms

Big Winners!!!

Wedding Day - March 24th

Best day of our life!  The wedding turned out great.  The venue was awesome.  JR the home owner was so kind and we are so very thankful for allowing us to use his backyard for our dream wedding.  All of our family and closets friends with us made the day perfect.  Aidan and Ava did great as the ring bearer and the flower girl!  We are so happy to be a family and feel lucky to have found each other.  We wish we could re-live the day over and over.  We are still waiting on pics from Tommy (best brother in law) and cannot wait to see them.  But here are a few pics from Nana.
