Memorial Day

Going to the "tent" in the mountains is one of our favorite places to go. Ava calls it "Georgia's house" and starts screaming with excitement as soon as we start to see the mountains. Nora only slept 15 minutes during the 7 1/2 hour drive. Needless to say, they watched an obscene amount of movies. As soon as we got to Cleveland, we automatically relaxed. It is a magical place for us. No tv, no internet and even no air conditioning. All of the tents (more like a cabin) have tin roofs so when it rained, the noise made us all sleep like babies. Who am I kidding....Nora cried about 2 hours the first night. The second night, Ava started coughing, waking Nora up and then we were up all night. Yes, the rain is peaceful in a strange way but wow...we were exhausted. It is hard for us to go anywhere because Nora only sleeps in her crib. She won't even take a nap at Nana's. She also wakes up at the slightest sound. At least at the campground, everyone tried very hard to be quiet.

We went to play in the Chattahoochee river, to Babyland and each night, we all (my Mom's side of the family) gathered to eat together. We are definitely all very good at that.

This was just a fun time during the day. Nora had climbed into the baby doll stroller all by herself.

Ava worked so hard moving rocks.

Notice Ava's doll, Ava Lena (yes, she is creative) going to school with the other "big kids."

Ava's first day at swimming lessons. I'm having to bribe her with icee's to get her to put her face in the water.
