Busy Weekend

 We started our weekend of travel at Nana and Papa's house where Avery insisted upon feeding Oreo, as usual.  That little pony is the first thing that Avery talks about when she finds out we're headed to Clinton...she is obsessed.  Luckily for Avery, Nana always has some carrots on hand to feed to Oreo, as well as the other two horses.

We then headed to Republic to celebrate Mason's first birthday party.  This was our first trip to Republic, and  we had a great time.  Avery has really started to interact with other kids separate from adults (which is a new thing for her), and it's so cute to watch her have a little conversation with other kids.  Skyler has a very outgoing personality, so he was eager to show Avery around the house and play with her outside.  They were so cute together.  Thank you to Cody, Tasha, Skyler and Mason for sharing the day with us.

 Heading down the hippo water slide...in her clothes!

After the party in Republic, we took a different route back home and stopped at the Lake for a quick visit with Great Grandpa and GG.  We are always so happy to see them.  While we were there, GG gave Avery a present...a tea set, and Oral gave Avery a table and chair set.  So, Avery and GG had a little tea party.
