Catching up - Camping

I've been a little behind in my blogging. So in an effort to catch up, I'll try
and post 2 or 3 posts in the next few days.

Before heading back to VA, we went camping with Justin's family over Labor Day weekend. Besides a few people getting the stomach flu (including Ava and myself) we had a good weekend. :)

Justin had a great time fishing with his brother Nate.

Ava loved the dirt as you can see. The mark on her forehead is from her "drinking" out of a cup with dirt in it. This is how she looked most days, regardless of how many times we tried to clean her up.

She also loved playing with her cousin Ethan.

Ethan had fun scooping up dirt and pouring it into Ava's cup. Unfortunately most of the time, more dirt ended up on Ava than in the cup. :)

"I Love Camping!"

Note: While creating this post, Ava was sitting on my lap playing with things in the desk drawer. At one point, I felt her rubbing something on my chin. I looked down to find her coloring on my face with pink marker! I guess that's what I get for not paying much attention to her, even though she is sitting on my lap.
