Happy 1st Birthday!

Today is Paige's first birthday, and I think Ava and I are much more excited about this than Paige is, of course. We are going to have a little party tonight at our house with some friends from church. Then this weekend we will see my parents and have a small party with them. And then in the middle of July we will go down and visit some of Ava's family and have another party. So my this time next month, Paige will of had 3 party's and more than enough cake, ice cream, and presents.

I'm sure we will take lots of pictures and try to video most of the party tonight. Once we have them on the computer, I will try and get some posted out here. So please check back soon.

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's day to all the Dad's out there. This was of course my first one, and Ava and Paige did their best to make it a special one. Ava found out and arranged for us to go to an Exotic Italian Car show on Father's Day afternoon. We got to see all types of cool cars...Lamborghini, Porsche, Fiat, Aston Martin, Maserati, Lotus, etc... Even though this was meant for me, I think Ava really ended up enjoying it herself.

Chicago Trip

Last week we headed up to the Chicago area for my grandfather's memorial service. While we were in the area we made a trip to downtown Chicago and to the Brookfield Zoo. We enjoyed most of our traveling aboard the train system that reaches out of Chicago to the suburbs.

Off to church

Here is just a quick picture we took last week before we headed off to church. Paige just turned 11-months old and has 6 teeth now, with 2 more that just broke through.
