Christmas Day

After opening gifts at home we headed to my parents in Livermore. Ava was excited to go see her Papa and Nona Kurz. When we got there she practically jumped out of my arms to get to her Nona. Ava was also excited to see my brother, "Uncle". Ava was a little more weary of my Ding & Dinga, but warmed up after a little while.

Of course Ava was spoiled again. She got a lot of cool gifts that made her very happy. She got toys, clothes, books, and puzzles. Ava is not going to be bored or under dressed for a very long time. The best gift was the Eric Carle "Brown Bear" quilt her Nona made. It is the prefect size for a twin bed or snuggling on the couch. I'm sure it will be something she cherishes for a long time.

Ava enjoyed helping Papa open a few gifts.

Ava LOVES to snuggle with Nona.

I finally managed to get a picture with Ava. It isn't the best, but it works. I really need to work on getting out from behind the camera so I can be in pictures with my family.

Ava has recently discovered Mickey Mouse. We watched an old Mickey and Pluto Christmas cartoon and now everyday she wants to watch, "Mic Mou". My mom had this Mickey Mouse Christmas decoration that Ava loved. It played music and after about 15 minutes we had to hide it. Ava loved my Aunt & Uncles dog named Mickey and called him, "Mic Mou" too.

Ava LOVES spaghetti and making a mess. Spaghetti face never gets old and always makes for cute pictures. Ava also enjoyed yams with marshmallows. She did not want the delicious prime rib though.
