viva las vegas





























































avery and i had so much fun in las vegas the last two weeks. we shopped, helped my mom with mallory's wedding stuff, got to be there for both zach and my dad's birthdays (HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! love you both), and had mallory's shower on saturday. i got to hang with my sister and some friends and it was a great couple of weeks. we got back yesterday morning, and avery is missing all of the attention. she is cutting EIGHT teeth right now. EIGHT. so she misses grandma and grandpa like crazy. she's definitely grandma's girl. every morning my mom would get up with avery and they would play until mom had to go to work. when i would get out of bed and try to get avery, she would cling to her grandma for dear life.
the shower was a huge success. i helped make the food and mom designed the adorable English Tea Party theme and everyone had a great time. check out the pics. good to be home.

Miss you guys already-I'm glad tht you made it home safely. You guys did an amazing job with the shower-Mallory is lucky to have such an amazing sis. Those pics of Avery in the bathtub are the sweetest, such a beautiful girl you two have. Good luck with the teeth-I ask myself every day when will it be over? McKenna only has six teeth-we have a long way to go...
