So far this summer has been fabulous! We are so enjoying our family time. I sometimes just have to stop and think about how blessed I am to have a husband and daughter that I want to spend every second of my time with. So often you hear wives/moms complaining about wishing to get away from it all, but I am loving every second of it. We're trying to fill our days with rest and fun. And when it comes to fun, we are always looking for ideas that are FREE!
The past couple of weeks we have gone to the public library's story time for toddlers a couple of times, and the Butterfly House at Lost River Cave. We've also played with water balloons in the backyard. (Now that was lots of fun!) We read TONS of books during the day and have gone on a few walks (which we need to do more of). Kyle and I racked up some gift cards from our sweet students at school, so we have been able to eat out (a lot) with no cost to us! (So thoughtful!)
Ava was a little scared of the butterflies at first. Kyle and Mandy kept trying to put them on her or in her hand and they kept flying away. But then they found this dead one and she grew more comfortable.
We plan on utilizing the Connection Center at our church very soon. It has a huge bouncy house that Ava loves to bounce around in!
We'd love you to share some fun free activities that we could do together, if you have any!

She loved it. She named it Jet Pack Pack Pack. (I truly don't know where she gets her names. She has recently named her dolls Formango, Crybaby Crybaby, Rownie, and Kellis.)
Here she is walking on the bridge. How beautiful is she?
