I could title this post "Six Birthdays, an Anniversary, and a Christmas!" Okay...so we only have two December birthdays in our immediate family. However, Dave shares a December 8th birthday with his Mom, Ava shares a December 12th birthday with her cousin, Natalie...and another cousin, Nicole, celebrates her big day on the 19th...and last but not least...our sister-in-law, Sherilyn, celebrates her birthday on the 29th! Oh, and my Mom and Dad celebrate their wedding anniversary on the 21st! Could this month possibly get any busier?
But oh what fun we've had!
Ava helps Daddy open his presents!
Dave is thrilled to get a BYU colored bathrobe from his Mom and Dad!
Ava insists on "reading" her card to Daddy!
Dave couldn't wait to put on his new birthday sweater!
(Also just so happens to be BYU colors)
Ava's big day...the present opening begins!
Ava received several great books this year...unfortunately
she is still enamored with "Thomas"!
Away we go!!! Ava has been wanting a new bike forever!
Ava luuuuuuuvs pink...so of course the cake had to have it!
She's just a little excited about the cake and candles!
Do we look tired or what? Too much sugar?
We loved having Grandma and PaPa Johnson in
town for Ava's big day! (Especially since PaPa was so kind
to put Ava's bike together for us...thanks again PaPa)
Santa even showed up for Ava's birthday! He was one day late...but we'll take it! Actually, it's such a cute thing...every year the local fire department rides through several neighborhoods with Santa on a fire truck! Dave, Ava, and Sheeba ran out to greet him!
