Yes, I know, I have been a blog slacker this week. There just doesn't seem to be much to say. But, here are a few things we have been up to. Becca was her over the weekend. It was so great to spend time with her. Ava and I went to Logan on Friday night and stayed over until Saturday afternoon. I got my hair done. I haven't had it done since October so it was quite a treat. It makes all the difference to have a good cut and color. My cousin Mandy does it for me and she does a great job. Plus it is always so fun to see her an catch up! My dad and Becca watched Ava while I was at the salon. One of Ava's newest words is grandpa. She will actually let my Dad hold her lately and Monday while we were at Costco she bumped into and elderly man and then looked up and said "hi Grandpa". We all had a pretty good laugh. My Dad also took us to Juniper take out for lunch. MMMM my favorite place in all of Logan. After lunch we went to my Grandma's house. I love her so much and wish that I could spend more time with her. She is such an amazing woman! She had a great time playing with Ava. It is so wonderful to see how cute they are. I remember my Grandma playing with me the same way. She is getting up there in years and I know she doesn't feel well a lot of the time, but she is always so happy and upbeat. I really look up to her and admire her love of life.
Cooper turned two on Monday. Wow! I can't believe it has been two years. I wasn't able to be present for his birth, but I waited all day by the phone for updates and finally the wonderful news that our boy had made is arrival. He is such a wonderful part of our family. He is the Man in my life right now and is one of my favorite parts of the day. He is my greeter when I walk in the door at Katie's. He always runs in yelling "dewy" "Aya" it puts an instant smile on my face! He and Ava are such cute cousins and I am so glad that they get to grow up together and be good friends. I hope that they will always be close and that they will help each other through the tough times in life.
I have really been enjoying the beautiful weather these past few days. I am ready for summer! It has been fun to watch Ava play outside. She just walks around like she owns the world. She loves to carry around the baseballs and bat, dig in the dirt's and slide. I am so glad that Katie has a such a fun yard with all the toys a kid could wish for. I can't wait until it is warm enough for a trip to Cherry Hill! I am sure we will spend a ton of time there this summer, I can't wait to see if Ava loves the water as much as I do.

Hey Julie, don't feel too bad about slacking a little on your blog, I am guilty of that too. My sister worked at Juniper when she lived in Logan. I went a few times and really like it too.
Jewels, you do such a great job of sharing your insights. I look forward to each blog you do. I am so glad you got to spend time with Becca and with your Grandma Clark. She is a very special and wonderful woman. I love her as I love my own mother. Learn from her and especially her cooking! I learned alot about cooking from her and many other things. One thing we can all learn from her is her beautiful and sweet temperament. She never complains and I have hardly ever seen her really mad! Just like her mother - she never got mad either. She just loved everyone. Treasure every minute with her. She is a very special lady and you are lucky to have her for a grandma!
