Ava's Second Birthday, and First Trip to UT!

We had such a fun day on Ava's birthday. I'm so glad that both David and I were off this past week, so that we could both be able to spend the entire day with her. We started off with just some early morning plans at the bounce house we love, but then we swung by David's office, and decided to have an impromptu day on campus, which Ava loved. Truth be told, of all the things that I've shared with Ava in her two years, taking her to the campus where David and I both went to school was one of the most special! Such an amazing day!

Starting her birthday off right, at Kids N Play! We love this place!
