Happy Halloween!

My friend, Emily, and I took Avery to the Trunk 'N' Treat in downtown Tellico. Avery found her new love for candy corn. She wasn't really into getting her picture taken, but she was the cutest little stinker you've ever seen! We went and saw Shawn at basketball practice after getting our treats. I'm telling you, he lit up!!

Avery turns 16 months!

I took these pictures of Avery playing outside just to capture her growing up! I love her more every day. Some of my new favorite things:
She LOVES sitting in my lap. She turns around with her back to me and walks in reverse until she can plop down between my legs.
She loves hats and looks super cute in them.
She attempts to imitate almost everything we can say. She's a talker.
She hides her eyes with her hands and I say, "Where's Avery?" She responds with, "There she is!"

C-N Homecoming 2008

Shawn, Avery, and I went to my old stomping ground for homecoming. We got to see Krystal and Kayla Beth...yay!! We also got to spend a few minutes with Julia and meet her niece, Lilly Kate, who is Avery's age. We attempted to go to the game, but you'll never guess who didn't want to sit and watch it.

My First Peach!

Grandpa gave Avery her first real peach today...pretty funny!!

Family Visit

Mimi, Poppi, Tyler, and Chad came to see us this weekend. We took them on their first Tellico Beach experience and then hit the Coker Creek Gold Festival. Mom and Dad kept Avery for us Saturday night while Shawn and I went to the mall and out to dinner. It was a late anniversary date, I guess. It's nice to get out once and a while and it's really nice to see our family. I miss them!

Me and Granddaddy

My Aunt Debbie sent me a picture of my Granddady today. It's the only one I have! It was taken in 1982. I would have been two. I've also posted the last picture I have of me and my Grandma. It is taken at her 90th birthday. I miss her. She's been gone for a year and a half now.
