Ava in action

Our little soccer star! Love this picture of her. She is so fast and great with her feet. She has picked up soccer so well. She is a natural.

Breakfast Date

These kids...they either love each other and play so well or we literally have to separate them because they are yelling and fighting with each other.

This was a good morning!

Ava's End of School Pep Rally

Ava had her last Pep Rally for the year. She was so cute! But we think she is more of an athlete than a cheerleader/dancer.

Mother's Day Cruise - last day

We look forward to this breakfast with Dr. Seuss. Its so well decorated and the food is so good. I had fil mignon and eggs. Ava had waffles, but wanted my steak. We were shocked. She hasn't had meat in months. So I did not refuses her. She ended up eating half of it. I was so happy! On a funny note she said she would only eat meat cows and not dairy cows. lol! Where does she come up with this stuff. haha! Has a little mind of her own. Again we spent the day by the pool and dinner with family. We celebrated Jacob's 14th birthday and Sylvia's 40-something birthday.

Mothers Day Cruise - Cozumel

Our favorite day, Cozumel!! Its absolutely beautiful. We spent the day at Mr. Sanchos with the family. Ms. Ava had so much fun this was the only day she actually took a nap.

Mothers Day Cruise - day at sea

We woke up to a beautiful sunny day out at sea. I worked out while Ava and Mimi relaxed. Then we had an amazing breakfast with uncle Augustine. The rest of the day was spent by the pool. Ava was quite the little swimmer. I was so proud of her and how brave she was for swimming on her own.

That evening we met everyone for dinner and family time checking out the ship night life.

*on a sad note we were held in our room this afternoon for about 3 hours while the staff looked for a missing woman. it was later determined she fell overboard the evening before. Just terrible.*

Mothers Day Cruise - departure

We left home Wednesday evening to head to Gramps and Mimi's. Ava cried on the way there because she said she would miss her Daddy while we were on the cruise. I promised her she would have a great time and this was a special time for us girls to spend quality time together doing fun things.

Thursday morning there were no tears and only excitement. We paid extra for pre boarding and it was totally worth it. Our schedule boarding time was 11am. We were in our cabin by noon, eating lunch and having drinks before we even departed.
